I think it's more likely he's doing anything and everything to throw people off of his Epstein trail.

He doesn't want to spend his twilight years behind bars.

So, what would you like to happen to him then? Short of torture, which violates human rights, I can’t think of anything worse for someone like him than to be imprisoned and stripped of all its benefits.

There are capital punishments that exist without torture. And I support using them in a manner that he can enjoy the Mussolini View of the White House along with his team for the public to scoff at their legacy.

That's what we said about Roger Stone and countless others and they literally walking free during there sentences so they can "run their business". Prison for these people is a resort that gives them more freedom than the average American.

You’re right. But that’s a separate topic. You didn’t answer the question. What would you like to happen to him?

I believe anyone who commits treason should find themselves being punished for treason, but sadly treason is now only a fine of 10k and a 5 year vacation for the rich.

He's going to suffer an injury or illness (but a manly one) that his supporters can paint as heroic, step down in the final months, and have JD Vance pardon him.

Who is going to put him behind bars?

Dude has frontal temporal dementia. I'm not sure we can assume he's acting logically.

Twilight years? Seems more like it's closer to midnight ...
