Trump should be prosecuted for sedition and insurrection.
We all saw him inflame the crowd, that he brought together on Jan 6, and we saw what they did to the Capitol, after swallowing his LIES about a Stolen Election.
And then there’s the absolute evidence of him actually tryin to Steal the Election.
We take exception to those who say there is "little reason" to open an investigation. Trump's statements like "I just want to find 11,780 votes" (made to the Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger) and "just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me" (made to Trump's own acting attorney general) suggest Trump knew that he had lost and was openly procuring fraud.
There was no reasonable basis for him or anyone to genuinely believe he had won. Any notion that Trump was articulating an honest but misguided belief is belied by his long record of lies that began with the size of his Inauguration crowd, and increased daily.
The Justice Department regularly prosecutes public officials for asking election officials to do things like "adding ballots to increase the vote totals for certain candidates," which is what Trump allegedly asked for here.
