This article lays out all of Trump's crimes. It's difficult to ignore all of them...
If history is any guide, the desire to “move on” will only grow stronger in the weeks and months ahead. But how does the country move on from a president whose disregard for the law has been so constant and pervasive? Every president seeks to exploit the immense power of the office, but Trump’s exploitation of this power represented a difference in both degree and kind. Never before had a president leveraged so much of the “energy” of the executive branch — Alexander Hamilton’s word — to advance his personal interests. Presidents Reagan and George W. Bush stretched the limits of their authority in the name of national security. Trump stretched the limits of his authority not just to enrich himself and his family but to block investigations into his personal and official conduct and to maintain his grip on power.
Trump’s conduct as president was a product of his unique character. But it was also enabled by the office. The accumulation of decades’ worth of lawmaking, legal theorizing and historical precedent had given the president almost total freedom from accountability, rendering useless any seemingly applicable tool of law enforcement. Under the special-counsel regulations, the independent prosecutor who was charged with investigating the Trump campaign’s links to Russia effectively served at the pleasure of the Trump administration. The federal prosecutors who indicted Michael Cohen for an illegal campaign-finance scheme were bound to respect a decades-old legal opinion from the Justice Department asserting that the president — who, according to Cohen, directed him to carry out the scheme — was immune from criminal prosecution. There was nothing, and no one, to stop Trump from ordering numerous officials not to cooperate with his impeachment inquiry. Not that this mattered; Trump’s acquittal by the G.O.P.-controlled Senate was a foregone conclusion before the hearings even opened. One after another, Trump’s close associates faced charges for actions committed on his behalf, even as he walked through still more open doors, confident that as long as he remained in office, he was untouchable.

Advocating that we become a banana republic? Cool...
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

He probably wants to stay in power because once he's out he's gonna have a lot of legal troubles.

Ignoring our laws would be a banana republic. Firing people in government who are enforcing our laws would be a banana republic. Creating Executive Orders to pursue your enemies would be a banana republic. Refusing to accept election results would be a banana republic.
Any of these sound familiar?

Gotta give it to you, Cucksy, I agree that Obama weaponizing the IRS to go after political enemies and using US intelligence agencies and law enforcement agencies to spy on his successor made us look like a banana republic.

We're talking about the current problem, not the best President in the last 50 years.

Never happened. There were several fake foundations by far right Evangelicals exposed, but those are frequently audited. They got caught.

A Case? I think not.
What you are advocating is what third world dictators do. So what you are saying is that Biden Harris would be third world dictators.
There is always Gorbachev style exile/asylum. You Communists welcomed Gorbachev with open arms. For Trump to have to escape says far more about Democrats/Communists in the US than it says about Trump. YOU are the DICTATORS!
Disagreeing with Communists is NOT an impeachable offense.

May I remind you that the Constitution says the President would leave on January 20, 2021 IF he loses. The jury is still out on the stolen election attempt.

According to Lester tonight, remarks by Biden today seem to indicate our President-elect has no desire to prosecute Trump. Joe wants a peaceful transition.

Like I said, Biden wants. I'd like a Yaesu FT-DX101. Maybe Joe and I will both get what we want for Christmas.
