    They are getting off easy. They attempted a coup. It’s a wonder they aren’t on trial for their lives.

      Getting the death sentence would be difficult on a former president.

      Add in his cultists, who seem to have a boner for vigilante “justice,” and I could absolutely see, from my vantage point in the south, red necks turning to violence over the death of their cult leader.

      Personally I’d rather see them rot in a cell, deprived of all they relish. No more big macs for Trump. No binging fox. No more yes men kissing his diaper laden ass.
