They do not want Trump in jail. He is the perfect enemy. By keeping him out of jail they have the easiest political opponent possible.
How the Hillary Clinton campaign deliberately “elevated” Donald Trump with its “pied piper” strategy
In its self-described “pied piper” strategy, the Clinton campaign proposed intentionally cultivating extreme right-wing presidential candidates, hoping to turn them into the new “mainstream of the Republican Party” in order to try to increase Clinton’s chances of winning.

That might have been the case in 2016. I think that changed after the election of 2020.

They waited to sue Trump for Jan6 until they were certain the trial would not finish before the elections and now "oh no Trump is running again!’
If they actually saw him as the danger to democracy they pretend he is they would try to win over voters by appealing to voters instead of just turning the trump fearmongering to 2000%

Or maybe they are trying to appeal to voters but a lot of voters support Trump?

Most voters would have liked to see the ‘justice system’ do anything that resembled working. But imagine if Democrats weren’t able to waive their support for away by screaming incoherently about the end of Democracy.
Trump is more vital than ever for the Democratic party to win. They are running on 100% fearmongering.
