Capone also went out of his way to help people to improve his public image. Capone is also responsible for fewer deaths. In a lot of ways, Capone was just a better person than Trump.

Trump's case of raging tertiary syphilis is also better than Capone's. Everything Trump does can only be described in superlative-laden comparisons to long-dead gangsters.

Well, you sorry lump of lard, it's your own damn fault for being such an arrogant prick. And it's not harassment if you're GUILTY. Guess we'll find out soon enough.

It's not fair to compare Trump to Hitler, Hitler actually served in the military and didn't need a ghost writer to write his book for him.

Why would that be something to brag about?

Someone who is innocent and clean has no need for lawyers. He doesn't run afoul of the law.

All Trump is admitting is that he's a criminal who needs lots of "criminal" lawyers (cf. Jesse from Breaking Bad).

Now, according to Trump, gangsters are great.  Capone went to Federal prison for tax evasion. So hopefully Trump can follow in those footsteps.

What is astonishing to me, even though it shouldn't be, is the fact that we WATCHED him break the law.  There is no question about many of the things he's done because we watched him do it.  Jan 6th and the farking documents are just two examples.  But the list goes on and on and on.

Yet he still claims that this is all "weaponization of the DOJ", and "it's all political."  And what's worse is that his supporters believe and repeat the nonsense day in and day out.

You know what would fix this problem?  INDICT HIM.

But of course, as we are well aware by now, that is never going to happen.  Apparently we are powerless to do anything to him.  We can't even shut him up.

Even if we don't get the perp walk, imagining tfg** going to prison for any of his crimes makes me happy. I imagine it would be a good day for 75% of the country and a reckoning for the 8-9% remaining dedicated to his farkery.

The IRS was more powerful in Capone's day, which entirely explains the GQP platform of defunding it.
Trumps tax returns are written in crayon and signed "Epstein's Mom", of course the government won't do anything (he currently owes $100,000,000 in back taxes to the IRS BTW).
But go ahead bottom 99%, just miss $5 in taxes and you will receive a letter in the mail asking for the $5 and likely a fine.  Don't pay the fine and your stuff will be taken.

Republicans love their criminals, particularly ones who can beat the rap. That's part of the Republican mindset: You're innocent until convicted, and even then, you don't deserve punishment because you're wealthy and/or white.

Personally convicted for tax evasion would also seem nice.
