      Criminal cases are different.
      It'll take time. Otherwise, acquittal -- then double jeopardy.
      Unless it can be dismissed without prejudice, so that the prosecutor(s) can bring back the charges at a later time.

      Unfortunately, he's very rich. And in the US, being rich gets you a LOT of free reign from the legal system.
      For example: he was found guilty of charity fraud while President. According to the law, that's supposed to disqualify him from holding office any longer, be grounds for impeachment/removal, AND lead to prison time.
      What he got was a token fine that he paid out of tax dollars & nothing more, simply because he was rich & the president.

    One thing that's interesting to me is how the out-takes revealed how hair-trigger 45's temper is, and how quickly he descends into tantrums at the slightest difficulty. The man grimacing and smacking the podium and making violent "reset" hand gestures when he has to do something as simple and easy as repeat a take once or twice is definitely the man who would throw his food at the wall or lunge for a Secret Service agent's throat. He is also not someone capable of complex plans.
    It's nothing we didn't already know, of course, but 45 usually carefully manages his public image to appear unflappable and sophisticated (at least, as much as he's capable of doing so). Those out-takes shred that image for anyone who cares to look, and perhaps even for some who'd rather not. A guy playing 47D chess doesn't start pounding tables because he has to repeat a sentence, and there's not really a way to spin that as "the liberal media's out to get me", because it was his people in control of the recording.
    The out-takes made him look quite powerless, and there's few things more deadly to a fascist leader than signs of weakness, because the image of strength is pretty much all his followers pursue him for, and there's always a new would-be fascist leader sharpening their knives in the shadows just off-stage (hi, DeSantis!).

      Funny moment in generally sad situation... My grandfather was in the Royal Air Force during WWII. When he had to go into a care home with dementia he used to tell us that during the war, someone flew the plane and he and another guy sat at the back of the plane lighting the bombs and throwing them out.
      😅
      He drove essential supplies to bases all over Western Europe. He didn't ever actually fly in bombers during the war.
      We used to wonder if he had dreams and confused them with memories. Or they put cartoons on...!?

      Not only do they continue to support him, but people genuinely believe that he was a good president, a good Christian, kept his promises and did more than anyone else for our country. These are the same people that seem to think our border policies completely switch from open to closed when the presidency switches hands, when in reality very little at ICE and Border Patrol probably change - only the coverage of it does. But people choose to believe the news sources they choose to consume and they emotionally need to believe the person they supported and elected was not a dumpster fire making a mockery of everything we hold dear.
