Great analysis, and as I lawyer myself, I know what you are saying is logical.

Yet the anxiety remains for us (the sane “us” in the country) who have already seen the nearly unimaginable depths to which Trump will stoop again and again, and how hands-off mainstream Republicans act every time he does – not to mention the rabid, full-throttle support from the MAGA wing. The man literally placed unqualified lapdogs in high positions at the Pentagon as his term was expiring and nearly did the same at Justice while he contested his 2020 defeat and planned January 6th. If he were to somehow prevail in 2024, as hard as that is to imagine, there is nothing he wouldn’t do – no norm he wouldn’t obliterate - to shut down every investigation and prosecution relating to him. And the reaction from all but a handful of Republicans on the Hill would be completely supportive or … “oh, there’s my elevator; I have to go.”
