  And where's that?
context: I’d like to say I believe he’ll be held to account, but reality suggests that I’ll be reading another article just like this on January 1, 2024. >
  
  Sadly, you’re prob 100% correct. He hasn’t been held accountable thus far, and I’m skeptical that we even have the mechanisms to make that happen. >
  
  Trump doing time for his crimes would be justice but this piece is a waste of fucking time. >
  
  Personally, I'm hoping to lose about 15 lbs (which is about 6% of my total weight, so very doable, in my estimation)
  on the other hand, if the good ol' USA was to lose about 350 lbs of ugly body fat, I'm down with that, as well   /s >
  
  In a year? That should be ridiculously easy. >
  
  I just want him to be miserable for the rest of his life >
  
  Success.   He is and has been for a long time.  The man had a slim chance at happiness but he he didnt have the fortitude to do the work.  No matter who he beats, who he fucks, what he buys or what he eats, he will never be enough, it will never be enough.  The happiness train left the station a long time ago. >

  should probably clarify that the author of the book that that character’s in, is stephen king ;) >
  
  I'm hoping for a full on prison sentence >
  
  I'd love to see Putin, Trump and Murdoch get their comeuppance this year. Heck, even one out of three would be something. >
  
  I'm not sure Murdoch is even alive at this point. His kids have been in charge for years, already. >
  
  Reckoning? For Trump and our own national news providers.  Are the creators of the Trump disaster going have a reckoning.  Trump didn't create himself. >
  
  The Trump disaster came about because of white supremacy. They are the ones that delivered for him. Republicans could not win without someone graciously opening the party to white hate groups and they are the ones that will remain with him to the end. That is his base. 
  The evangelicals, the billionaires, the media, the politicians, all suck it up as long as it pays. At some point, it no longer pays. >
  
  There won't be a reckoning. He has the instinctive ability to cause massive chaos and ruin without doing enough to get prosecuted. >
  
  With the 3rd looming, The new Congress, scarily, could whip up legislation to drop the case. Of course it can be vetoed, but it's still scary. >
  
  I don't know what this is referring to, but Congress can't really affect the DOJ.
  Even debt ceiling standoffs or government shutdowns are empty threats - the special counsel is guaranteed appropriations and unhindered work by law.
  All the GOP House can do is start their own frivolous political committees as distractions for the public, or some hail mary hope it influences a future trial.
  Otherwise, Congress is virtually powerless over ongoing criminal investigations. >
  
  I would've said that if the GOP won both houses, but Republicans have to get legislation through the Senate before it gets to Biden.
  Not impossible, but it's a tall order for most matters. I certainly don't see anything involving ongoing criminal investigations making it to him. >
  
  What are you waiting for? The election already happen. >
  
  He not only betrayed the oath of office, he betrayed the majority of the country being that he was not elected by popular vote. >
  
  At the rate the DOJ is moving and how Merrick Garland seems to be afraid of Trump, I expect some sort of ruling where Trump won't be able to ever hold public office again and that will be it. He will get off scot-free. >
  
  That would actually be even less likely than all the charges against him being dropped, since it's not really a thing that is possible to do. >
  
  There better be. He must go down for what he created. It’s so obvious. >
  
  Addicted to the hopium. >
  
  ...AND his elected enablers. >
  
  Basically, "I won't try to be better, but a guy who has little or no effect on my life must pay." I mean, I hate trump but that headline is a doozy. >
  
  Keep dreaming. >
  
  They got him now. The court’s judge and jury will put him exactly where he belongs.
