Seditious conspiracy, shmeditious deliracy

What does it matter if he's guilty?

Huffington Post screenshot. Opinion: The Jan. 6 Hearings Make Trump Look Guilty. But, Does It Matter? Despite damning evidence against the former president of the United States, it's most likely that nothing will happen to him because nothing ever does. The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol Thursday voted to subpoena former President Donald Trump. Michael Arceneaux, Guest Writer Oct 14, 2022

Michael Arceneaux wrote in this article:

"However, while half of the respondents said they think Trump should be charged with a crime, six in 10 respondents said they don’t think Trump will face any charges.

Because nothing ever happens to him."

In November 2023, CNN reported of Liz Cheney's forthcoming memoir (HuffPost) that Kevin McCarthy was concerned that Trump wasn't eating after January 6 didn't go his way:

“Mar-a-Lago? What the hell, Kevin?” Cheney asked, according to CNN, which obtained an advance copy.

“They’re really worried,” McCarthy said. “Trump’s not eating, so they asked me to come see him.”

“What? You went to Mar-a-Lago because Trump’s not eating?” Cheney replied.

“Yeah, he’s really depressed,” McCarthy said, according to the book excerpt.

In reaction to which, Sean Casten tweeted:

November 28, 2023: A few weeks ago our 14 year old dog stopped eating. At no point did our vet say to us 'you should grovel before him and tell him you think he's the President'.
