That's also why Trump was so effective at getting votes.
It's a lot harder to argue when you're following laws and being honest. You're at a severe disadvantage (same as Kamala)
Trump doesn't care about the truth, he doesn't care about law, and because he KNOWS he can't pardon himself for state crimes (like tax fraud in New York), despite being president, he WILL likely go to prison after his term. There is NO incentive for him to do whats right, and everything he does at this point, is driven by keeping himself out of prison.
For anyone else, civil war would be terrible. For Trump, starting a civil war means he can claim its "war time" and postpone elections. We've already seen how low he's planning to stoop to.
