Forget impeachment. I want to see his head roll on live TV with the rest of these traitors
Too kind. I want to see a livestream of him spending the rest of his years in prison.
Put him in gen pop and make sure everyone knows he raped children
We need to combine it all for a perfect punishment, imprison with a 24/7 live stream, sell subscriptions to view, and give proceeds to the victims and families, use them to prosecute the rest of the crew and to pay to change the laws against the oligarchy.
You don't need to tell the prisoners that he raped kids. They know.
I think there is a big public perception issue of who exactly is a "Chimo" in prison. Most men in prison do not consider teens to be children and people who sexually abuse teens to be pedophiles. In spite of structural issues that lead to people being in prison, most people in prison are still bad people and have views outside the acceptable norm outside of prison. So someone in for raping a 15 year old isn't going to have the same social stigma in prison that someone who raped a 9 year old would.
You make your point flying in the face of the facts that Trump rapes 9 year olds aaaaand 15 year olds. I hope your hard drives are checked.
Then just tell them about how he threw a newborn baby of the 13 yo he raped into lake Michigan
Or, spending the rest of his life in prison while slowly removing his head inching away on the flesh
he fucked with the post office. there's only one punishment fitting. drawing, quartering, feeding to pigs, burning the pigs, dancing on the ashes, distributing the ashes for display in every post office as a warning to those who might dare fuck with the post office again.
