Donald Trump: President for Life

[louis c]

Oh, silly me, did I say "President for Life". I'm sorry, I meant "Life for President". Life in prison, that is.

1. Well as I recall Treason

is a capital offense. I'm usually against such things but in this case, as the truth emerges from the shit storm, I have to say that I'm in favor.

4. He has expanded my support for punishment for certain crimes.

Every day I turn on the news hoping that he will be either the victim of his own choices (poor diet and lifestyle leading to a massive stroke or heart attack) OR that Putin (or just about anyone honestly) has decided they are finished with him and took his immediate demise into their own hands. Then I think about how much he hates this country enough to sell it to the enemy and how his own personal greed has destroyed the US for decades to come and I just want someone to "go medieval on his ass" and make what is left of his life filled with punishments used during The Inquisition. He needs to suffer for acts of TREASON and for choosing to be The Moscovian Candidate.

6. Ah, yes. Medieval Times

How about one of those "witch" trials where they throw you in a deep lake with rocks tied around your feet. If you sink and die, then you weren't a witch. If you don't sink and die, then you ARE a witch and we kill you.

10. I don't even think he realizes what he's done

he thinks it is all OK because of his previlaged status. He believes he is akin to divine and can do no wrong so any jamups he's gotten himself into are just bad forces in the world preventing his wonderfulness. My guess is that the KGB folks know no this well and are playing him like a fiddle.

The guy is a serious mental case.

[BigmanPigman]

13. I hope he doesn't use "insanity" to escape a harsh sentence.

[jimlup]

14. Don't worry, he won't

His own mental state is something he never considers in evaluating a given situation. The guy thinks he's a God and will think this 'til he dies.

[dchill]

8. He's opened the window for trying it once.

[HipChick]

11. he'll open the window again..

it's not like the spineless rethugs are checking him,,

[Flaleftist]

2. Well,

he's 72, eats like shit, doesn't exercise and has anger issues. Maybe nature will take its course soon and technically it will be a President for life thing. I would rather see all his past crimes catch up to him, though.

[sandensea]

3. I'm sure it's crossed his mind.

But as any third-world despot could tell him, it's got its drawbacks - not least of which is being indebted to those who put you there:

[Wolf Frankula]

5. I have said.

If he is convicted of treason he can be hanged. Then he will have been president for life.

9. My personal desire is to have him and all his family

completely stripped of all their assets, which would then be applied to projects for the common good of the poor, and they would become the first Americans to be exiled for life. Let them find another country, or countries, to take them in (probably only Russia or Israel). Every one of them would be exiled, that is, except their minor children. They would be separated from their minor children at the U.S. border, and the children would be placed permanently in foster homes, to be raised by families who are registered Democrats.

And my guess would be that Putin would enjoy the final sadistic pleasure of denying Trump refuge.

[Grasswire2]

16. maybe we should start a thread on "what I want to happen to Donald and family..."

Here's what I think.

Law enforcement tells us that when a very dangerous person is cornered in a public place, we should open a path for that person out of the situation and then let law enforcement take him down.

How about telling Donald that there are no charges against him. He's free and clear if he will resign and leave public life.

But then when he clears out of the WH, charge the hell out of his family members. Let justice rain down; prison where the evidence leads justice.

Seize all Trump family assets. Restrict them from doing business. Put them on federal parole restriction for life after their prison sentences. Community service in some menial duty. Street sweeping maybe. Or laundry in a half-way house. No media appearances or public appearances.

In other words, break them. Grind them down.

And then we will see the measure of Donald Trump when he is totally powerless.

The alternative, Donald, is firing squad. Exile is even too good.

[colorado_ufo]

17. I love the ideas but

fear that his base would cause huge problems, if he were still in this country. They would try all kinds of means to get him "back to where he belongs" (in their eyes!).

[DavidDvorkin]

12. I hope he is president for life

All the way until close to the end of this year.

15. Jail to the Chief!
