    That’s a very good point I’ve only just really let sink in. Trump not passing go and going directly to jail will mean chaos and collateral damage, perhaps globally. Things have to be done delicately for all our sakes unfortunately.

      You don’t think that the current approach isn’t causing chaos? He literally forged documents to send imposters into the electoral college vote. His supporters stormed the capitol - beating and killing security personnel and in one case being shot dead by special services. I don’t think that jailing Trump will make these issues go away as they’re too ingrained already, but I do think a harder stance needs to be taken before there’s no more ground to stand on.
