    could someone [in the court process] request a mental evaluation to determine if he is even competent to be found guilty? hes clearly off his rocker, and a potential danger to himself and others!

              We can apply the “but who makes the rules” fear to everything. But inaction is just as bad. I think we need to understand that nothing has changed in politics, we just have more awareness of it because of the internet. The supreme court has always been corrupt. The idea of impartiality was drilled into us like the pledge of allegiance. We’ve all been brainwashed, but a lot more of us are waking up.

        I’m pretty sure that the most we can hope for is house arrest. The courts won’t want a former president getting stabbed in the showers, being bullied into giving up national secrets or the bureaucratic mess of him having a security detail inside, as fitting as any of that would be.
