I am rather with you on that. Barring him prior to any court proceedings sets a bad precedent. It would also rile up his supporters and they would have some legitimacy in their arguments.
Ugh. If the Senate had followed through with the impeachment he’d have been barred already. My dad’s a hardcore Republican and agrees the fucker is dangerous to democracy. I’m more worried at this point that his trials will align with the election and he’ll stir up another more deadly riot.
I would not be surprised to learn that several Democrats in power did not want to convict him because they expected him to turn the Republican primary into a shitshow and they benefit personally from the chaos.
