will deliver speech at 8pm from Bedminster
I would love to see him in a regular prison like he deserves, but can a person with secret service protection even get anything worse than house arrest? I've been unable to find clarifying information on this.
What he deserves is to not have special treatment anymore, but who knows how it will happen
I would imagine convictions related to espionage would probably strip you of any secret service protection. People argue that it's a former president's right to have SS protection, but remember the SS hasn't always been about protecting anyone, the used to only be counterfeit currency police
I think at this stage removing it would be equivalent to tattooing "assassinate me" on his forehead.
Look I hate the guy too and he doesn't deserve his freedom, but there's a large number of people in this world who would love to merc a former POTUS regardless of who that POTUS is or what they did. And frankly Trump is more dangerous as a martyr than he is alive and alone on house arrest for the rest of his life.
Edit, dead he can't speak for himself anymore, alive all he does is bury himself further every time he opens his mouth. Let him. Let him babble incoherently into obscurity. My father in law was full on MAGA and just last week he called Trump "fucking retarded" off-handedly. My wife and I both felt relief instantly. The dude is losing all but the extreme fringe.
