Maybe this is the view of a non-USian, but: If you are serious about somebody being Hitler or wanting to end democracy, you don't tread them like Trump was treated. Absurd technicalities so campaigns could call him a convict, but not actually putting him behind bars for breaking the rules these people supposedly care so much about? This was all messaging to shore up support and donations from snobby suburbanites and white collar losers. I am not an expert on the justice department, but this reads like just dont want to prosecute even though the Dems' message, who were supposedly running the governmental machine, was: "It's us or fascism" https://apnews.com/article/trump-jan-6-justice-department-classified-documents-01c2d54177d7c949f62a15604a27b3e0
I get it might not be easy but nobody can tell me yet why the guy behind something as mythologized as Jan 6 can just run for president again like it was some fucking retry, even after his idiot pork herd stampeded through the American Volkshalle
