Do Crime Do Time Including Trump 16

You do crime. You do time. But do kids listen to parents? They don’t.  Prisoners look forward to going home but dread inevitable unemployment, because most places do not hire people with a criminal record. The same corporate policy should apply to the Trump + 18, if they are found guilty in Georgia.

Most of Trump supporters that stormed the Capitol Building on 6 January 2020 are already behind bars. They’ll find it difficult to find jobs at the end of their sentences. Whatever political stripes on your shoulder, 6 January was violence on a building which is for all intents and purposes, a 'person' in its own right. Not only that, the intention was to do grievous bodily harm to people inside and take over the government illegally. It is a crime.

Therefore if found guilty, the remaining 6 January perpetrators should do time.  When they are released from prison, they must not get jobs in all levels of government, because they tried to overthrow it.

Corporate America uses the same logic. They don’t hire ex-cons because they say they fear for their businesses and workers. Trump supporters include under currents that made 6 January possible: insider trading. Wall Street gamblers get fat on critical information they are entrusted with. Same with people who work in the Capitol Building.

There was insider trading, which gave Trump supporters information about the building layout to such an extent that Richard Barnett put his feet on Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s desk.

The insider traders are accomplices and should not get government jobs after serving time. They should be treated like ‘common criminals’ that go back to crime because most businesses don’t trust them with a job.
