  I don’t think so. That would only make his wish to run and win against Obama even stronger. I am perfectly sure he thinks he could win in such a contest.

    And don’t forget, he has control of the whole federal government at the moment. He’s attacking his political enemies and attacking voting rights. It would be entirely within his current M.O. to either politically jail Obama, or change the voting laws to favor himself over Obama by restricting access to PoC being allowed to vote, sending ICE to deport anyone who tries to vote without bringing their social security card and birth certificate, etc.

    The SCOTUS is also on his side if there ever ends up being a debate about the results, so super fucked.

      Honestly there’s a variety of legitimate reasons to put Obama in jail. It’s a fraction of the number of reasons to put trump in jail, but they’re there

        Sure, and how many times has Obama been impeached? Thought so. You can not like your country all you want, but there is a way to do things and a way not to. Obama did it the way you are supposed to and Trump does whatever he feels like at any given moment. These are not even in the same realm of problems to deal with. Keep beating that dead horse though, eh!

      Obama would still win.

    Maybe so. But his backers won’t. And without those, he’s toast.
