Any attempt by the Democrats to forestall this would have allowed Trump to paint them as anti-American traitors. So the Democrats did nothing and Trump painted them as anti-American traitors.

Hey now! He was convicted of all 34 indictments he was charged with!

And sure, those charges were delayed for years. And they were a fraction of the 91 indictments he could have been tried for. And they had to be brought in a municipal court, by a local DA, because nobody above Alvin Brag was willing to bring a case to trial.

And then the court never bothered to issue a sentence, because it would have been rude to punish a newly elected President.

But they did something!
