You can't just stage a violent coop and expect to run for president again like nothing ever happened... unless the government is totally ineffective

Sadly, I think the commission is going to charge him...and subsequently prove that the government is totally ineffective by failing to convict or otherwise enacting no real penalty. Or maybe they'll know that they would only be proving their own ineffectiveness and not charge him.

He certainly SHOULD be barred from office via one of several mechanisms.

Better than that, he's an elite.

Or, even more to the point, if someone is rich, is willing to play dirty, and has a significant following they are untouchable. To use Trump's phrase, yes, he could shoot someone in the street and probably get away with it so long as his base doesn't desert him. Truly. He would make up some justification and you'd get a hung jury at best.
