    Ok not going to get into semantics but addressed how?

    There is still freedom of speech.

    freedom of speech doesn’t apply to making criminal threats

    I think you're setting yourself up for disappointment. Biden has already signaled he wants to move on, and while he will leave those decisions to the Justice Department, it's a good indication that the Feds won't pursue anything to avoid it all seeming like political payback. NY State might be the best hope, but not sure what will happen there exactly.

    This is not a criminal threat, he is not saying he will do anything.

    Anybody who thinks the election went well, like that idiot Krebs who used to be the head of cybersecurity [for Trump]. That guy is a class A moron. He should be drawn and quartered. Taken out at dawn and shot,” diGenova said.

    I wasn't specifically referring to federal investigations. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if President Biden pardoned trumpybear. Does a couple of things...it pushes the narrative that we have to move on to bigger and better AND it reminds people that he was guilty of crimes.

    I hope it’s some stuff that (if he did do something) is flat undeniably illegal. That along with losing an election and two popular votes. His legacy is of embarrassment for an extremely long time. Even the last name Trump is severely tarnished. He deserves it for the kind of person he is.

    I think this will ultimately take down all of them once everybody turns their backs on them they will have nothing to fall back on.

    In 5 to 10 years I see them all being bankrupt.

    You really want to start a quid pro quo situation?

    I think if anyone said that about Trump there would be people coming to get them. It sounds like enough of a threat, or at least encourages someone like the Proud Boys, or more violent Trump radicals types to muster up their troops and get nasty.

    Biden will move on, and so will the Democrats. The despicable Republicans have done so much damage it will take for them ever to stand a chance of winning an election in the future. As it stands, every last one of them in office right now isn't worthy of winning in the future. They all made their bed with Trump all the Maskless months. They all took their part in leading the rebellion against stopping the spread and letting the virus run rampant. They all have blood on their hands.

    They all stood back watching Trump lie and lie and lie and lie and lie and lie for months on end, and did nothing to speak out against him. They are just as guilty of being liars themselves by sitting back, and staying silent. Not one of them can be trusted again. They can change their tunes later, but they have shown they will lie with the best, and can't be trusted. None of them.
