Right now Trump could be or should be sitting in a holding cell awaiting his afternoon arrangement

... if his mug shot and fingerprinting have been done. The man was installed by Vlad Putin, the
electoral college, dirty FBI work, the dumb ass racists who voted, and a shit bag media.

the DOJ would not send us "pretty please"letters...within days the US Marshall Service would have served us a search and seize warrant and we'd be begging federal prosecutors for a deal...

I'm glad someone is finally going after Trump aggressively, but these recent indictments don't at all make me feel any need to renounce my previous criticisms of the slow-paced, kid gloves handling of Trump by the DoJ and other agencies.

We're still dealing with two unequal systems of justice, even if the upper tier system for the elite occasionally, reluctantly bares its teeth.

For his numerous "white collar" crimes over the years.

As for today, what I've heard is that there will be no time waiting behind bars and the fingerprinting is done electronically. No perp walk, no jail time. It's very basic, although he may decide to come out afterward and fire up the idiots, so the experts are saying this morning.
