If You Like Criminals

As the courts try to hold Trump and his accomplices accountable for attempting a coup, his supporters are planning to install Trump as a gangster president.

It's hard to track all the criminal activity surrounding Trump. Ten fake Trump electors in Wisconsin admit Biden won on the same day that 6 fake Nevada electors are criminally charged. GOP Speaker MAGA Mike is blurring faces of January 6 insurrectionists caught on tape to shield them from being "charged by the DOJ.” And in a town hall interview, Trump jokes about being a dictator and compares himself to Al Capone, saying "he was one of the greatest of all time, if you like criminals."

Much of the work is happening behind the scenes, but it involves some high-profile Trump leaders working together and on parallel routes.
