    Eventually they might.

    Our justice system is ridiculously slow, so by the time this stuff goes to court, there’s 100 others that have happened.

    It might take years before court.

    And if Trump wins, they could all be pardoned anyways.

        He didn’t pardon anyone for 1/6 because they failed…

        If they keep him out of jail, and he shortly after assumes office, he’ll pardon them to encourage it.

        Imagine the chaos of 10 threats a day every day of every trial of a trumpet.

        We literally couldn’t investigate them all, and some would actually do it. Not a lot, but some would.

        That’s a shit ton of power for one orange idiot, and trump isn’t quite dumb enough to not see it.
