The Atlanta-area district attorney investigating former President Donald Trump and his allies has been lining up witnesses to appear before a grand jury in order to craft a narrative around how Trump and his supporters tried to reverse the results of the 2020 presidential election in the Peach State, according to people familiar with the matter.

Awesome. I hope they get him and his cronies on RICO charges and everyone involved in this brazen attempt to overturn an election to install a fascist dictator winds up in prison.

I've thoroughly enjoyed watching him melt down over all these indictments. It's just like, what did you expect dude? If you don't want to be indicted every other week you should stop committing crimes. It's super easy. Look at me, I'm not committing crimes as we speak! It's effortless!

To the Trump's committing crimes is as natural as breathing, it may not be that easy.

Trump is the best president when it comes to getting indicted!
