Yes, let’s sit back and accept the slap on the wrist for a multitude of highly treasonous acts that have caused grave and serious damage to the country.
Not saying it's right or that you have to accept it, it's just sadly the state of affairs when it comes to the two tier legal system, where being rich gets you special treatment
Rich doesn't get you out of things, at least not on its own. Being rich gets you good lawyers who tell you not to do things before you do them, and then work with you to find loopholes so you can do what you want, anyway. If you do get prosecuted, good lawyers might get you out of it, or at least work down to a sweet plea deal.
Trump has driven away every good lawyer in the country, almost all of the not so good ones, and is now scratching around for the handful that technically passed the bar exam. Major firms, even one's run by partners who vote for him, refuse to do business with him. Why would they? He ignores their advice, causes headaches, and then refuses to pay.
He'll never be in general population simply because of what he knows & his required Secret Service detail. He'll get house arrest in a shitty barracks in a military base, just like Nixon's lawyer did.
I think people need to temper their expectations and accept that a rich, white, ex president is never going to set foot in jail.

Cool, so he should get away with treason because it’s the status quo.
I never said he should, or that it's right. But that's just the reality of the shitty system, where rich people get away with everything
