    I get that it’s much easier to argue with things you’ve imagined, but I didn’t say we can’t, or shouldn’t put him in jail. He should already be in jail. And he should stay there.

    I’m saying we should be aware of his plan and prepared for the response. We should recognize that we don’t have a functioning justice system, and that he has far too many followers to consider our country free or just. We should make the utmost haste with his trials, and ensure his punishment is swift and proportionate to his crimes. If we do that, he’ll never see the light of day again, and we will all be able to focus on different threats to democracy.

      There isn’t an argument. It’s just a statement that I think you sound purposefully pathetic and that’s an annoying sentiment to see online.

      Ah yes, thank you for reminding us to be aware of Trump. If only we as a nation could just reach sufficient awareness of Trump

        If it’s not an argument, why are you arguing? And why do you feel the need to misrepresent what I said?

        Forgive me if I don’t trust that there’s a plan to counter what Trump wants, because failure to anticipate what Trump was going to do is exactly how he won in 2016.
