I know that Hillary deleted emails when she knew it was illegal to do so, because she was hiding something.  And she succeeded.  We don't really know what she was hiding, even after all the WikiLeaks stuff.  Sad!  But could we prove in a court of law this was her intent? Maybe, maybe not.  Probably not worth trying.
Similarly, I know that Trump was trying to end the Constitution as we know it and make Congress bow to his mob.  We know he wanted them to do it because he asked them to do it and kept asking them to do it.  But thankfully the police and DCNG saw this effort as illegitimate and stayed loyal.  Now could I prove in a court of law this was his intent? Maybe, maybe not. People have already tried.  Colorado found he definitely meant to do it.  Others have avoided the question.  No judge has exonerated him.  And because it's the constitution itself at stake, not just some piddly little secrets of Hillary Clinton, it's definitely worth trying.

I don't know how you can believe that.

Seriously I don't get it.

He thought a few unarmed people could end the constitution of the most powerful nation on earth?

He's a billionaire. He could have bought and funded an army to storm Washington.
