None of it will feel satisfying until the head thug is in jail.
Yep. I am afraid we may never get satisfaction there. Until the top thug is in jail, however, justice will not be satisfied.

I love it. Everyone of these morons going to jail should send a shiver of fear through the rest of MAGA.

Trump shouldn't worry too much about prison, unless he's bunking with a large JD Vance type who get's turned on by something that looks like a couch.
I don't think Trump will ever go to prison. If he doesn't win again I'm just hoping for a conviction. I have seen it suggested maybe confinement on a military base where the Secret Service can control the situation but I'm sure he'll be confortable.

Trump will issue her a pardon and award her the Presidential Medal of Freedom along with Mike Lindell and his favorite pillows.
He can't pardon state crimes and Colorado has a Democrat governor. She's doing the time.

Will any of the old rules apply once Trump commences his Autocracy?

I don't know. People should probably vote for Harris if they don't want Trump pardoning a bunch of people who punched cops and tried to invade the Capitol and overthrow the election.

What did she do?
Tina Peters, the infamous election-denying Colorado clerk who tried to help Donald Trump overturn 2020 election results, was sentenced to nine years in prison—a far cry from probation, as her attorneys had asked for.

Peters, 68, was found guilty last month of allowing a man associated with MyPillow’s Mike Lindell to enter the Mesa County election system after the 2020 election—a breach that gave illegal access to the very voting data it was her job to protect.

Slow hardy clap from me. Enjoy your incarceration.
9 years for seeing voting data? What were they hiding?
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Well, you see, she was an election official. And no doubt since waaaay back it has been the duty of election officials to see that no unauthorised person is allowed to fiddle around with the system that handles voting data. It's not hard to see why that is important, is it? You agree that it should not be possible to let election officials to allow that to happen - right? You don't have to have anything to hide to think that is a bad and dangerous thing to happen.

But this person allowed "a man associated with MyPillow’s Mike Lindell to enter the Mesa County election system after the 2020 election—a breach that gave illegal access to the very voting data it was her job to protect". And the man she let in was not some college researcher who was just interested in the way the statistics panned out. It was a person associated with a fervent supporter of the guy who lost the election. She must have known that what she was doing was wrong and illegal, and that any repetition needed to be strongly discouraged. So the judge gave her a tough sentence, of which it is to be hoped that others will take notice.

Hold up. You’ve been apoplectic for nearly 4 years over your belief that ‘Democrats’ did what this women was clearly proven to have done, but now you want to tell us that she shouldn’t be jailed?
