      To be fair, we’re also worried that, if he does, his followers will go violent again. Not that this is a reason to excuse him him prison. It just means that it might not be all rainbows and puppies if Trump goes to prison. Our celebrations might be interrupted by home grown right wing terrorist attacks.

          I’m definitely not saying that we should go easy on Trump to appease them. We just need to keep in mind that Trump heading to prison won’t be the end of this. We’ll need be be ready to send those terrorists to prison as well.

        home grown right wing terrorist attacks.

        They’re going to do that regardless, and already are. There are very good reasons why appeasing terrorists is a truly bad idea, and first among them is that it not only doesn’t work, it guarantees more and worse.
