    Let’s not say “just” allegations since there’s literally a recording of him explicitly interfering in his own election.

      Until it’s proven as a criminal act in a court of law, it’s an allegation. Ya, there’s good evidence behind it; but, the process is the same for even the worst of people.

        The American criminal process is similar for groups of people who share socioeconomic circumstances, but that doesn’t change the fact that trump definitely interfered in the election.

        It’s an audio recording of trump, as far as I’m aware nobody has denied his Identity, interfering in an election.

        A criminal conviction for certain charges versus the fact of him literally interfering in a presidential election are different things.

        I can see how a conservative judge or officials can pretend that interfering in a presidential election does not constitute rebellion against the Constitution, but if you know what those words mean, that’s what trumpo did.
