I hope that comes back to bite trump on the ass not paying for everyone. but we have seen what happens when his pac foots the bills the lies start pouring out.
He’s going to learn very quickly that the court of public opinion is very different than state or federal court. And so is your ability to manipulate people.
When you can leverage tweets and an endorsement to get a Republican who’s afraid of a primary to kiss your ass (Hey Lindsey), it’s all fun and games. But it may not be so easy to manipulate people to do what you want when they have to choose between you and prison.
Some of these Trump minions are very stupid, but certainly they realize that people are not going to fight for them like they do Trump. There may be trepidation in the judicial system at large on how to deal with the process, fallout and implications of trying someone like Trump, but there is no such issue with someone like a Jenna Ellis or John Eastman; nobody will care, not even the ones who do! They may say “Damn FBI!”, but there will be no J6-like uprising for Kenneth Chesebro or Jeff Clark.
So reality is going to hit many of these folks, and the reality is many of them WILL be going to prison, and cooperation may be their only hope, and that’s only for the few who may have an defense/case to make.
