> The consequence should have been for all insurrectionists and Trump himself to be tried for treason and be imprisoned indefinitely.

People have this intuitive sense that there's some kind of authority of truth or justice, an available recourse that we could've and should've used.

But that sense is incorrect.

What we actually have the political and justice systems that Trump and his adherent have, so far, quite successfully subverted.

It was when the supreme court judged he could act like a king, the summer before he was elected, inventing things the constitution never said and setting the example of lawlessness Trump now follows up on confidently.

I'd agree - Trump fulfils the criteria of treason.

It's interesting to see that nothing happens despite this. Now he started another war to distract from his involvement in the huge Epstein network. Also, by the way, quite interesting to see how many people were involved here; there is no way Ghislaine could solo-organise all of that yet she is the only one in prison. That makes objectively no sense.

That’s funny because I was raised to believe that the consequence for treason was a hanging.

That it should’ve been the death penalty for every single person on the Capitol lawn.

That they signed their own death warrants.
