Combined with the idiot decision about "gratuities" what we see is that trump could be immune from prosecution for outright bribery--a chance he will willingly take and encourage--when the Constitution specifically sets out Bribery as a grounds for impeachment and "but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law."

One good thing that could happen is that trump, dope that he is, will feel free to take all sorts of provable bribes giving LOTS of grounds for impeachment, and then Rogers will have that chunk of the Constitution in front of his face.

I think we need to catch Trump in the insurrectionist acts that he will surely try. He won't be able to hide behind his SCROTUS-bestowed immunity a second time since he is acting as a private citizen this time, not a President-in-office. I think, should he be captured in the acts, so to speak, he should be hustled off to a military tribunal and the punishment fitting for a traitor.
