Because he’s right wing? This isn’t that complicated. People only get killed for actually threatening the gravy train. If this were another country the US would have backed the coup. Im still not convinced this will end with anything more serious than Trump getting a vacation in rich people jail.

Trump getting a vacation in rich people jail.

You've got pretty high hopes for the land of the greed.

I think he will never set foot in jail, the u.s government won't allow it. He'll be pardoned, or at the very best he'll be convicted but will spend the rest of his life appealing, until he dies by big Mac overdose

The president can't pardon state level charges

If the president could pardon state level crimes, I could see Joe Biden pardoning Donald Trump in order to "let the nation heal"

And Trump would thank him by calling him "No Go Joe" and demanding that second amendment people do something about him.
