At this point, I've begun to think that Trump is literally following the Hitler playbook - get thrown in prison to become a martyr on pre-trial court violations regarding witness/jury tampering and intimidation. He knows that he'll be afforded almost every luxury, and has his Secret Service detail to help him with the rest. It would likely only last for about 1 month or something, too. I'm not going to say anything else for now except thanks, everyone, there's a lot of great comments here.
Okay I know you said this nine days ago but I'm scrolling down and you said the H word and we've talked about this. Hitler didn't "get thrown in prison to become a martyr" - the Beer Hall Putsch was a legit attempt to overthrow the government with over a dozen killed. Hitler ran like a bitch - he wasn't at all interested in martyrdom. I wrote this September 1, 2020 and I wouldn't change a fucking word. I have been shouting down "Trump is Hitler" idiocy since fucking 2016 and I HAVE YET TO BE WRONG. Trump isn't Hitler, will never be Hitler, does not vaguely fucking resemble Hitler and is our own sort of miserable badness that deserves consideration in a framing of something other than fucking Weimar Germany.
