If convicted, could Donald Trump really see prison time? Experts have doubts, given Trump's Secret Service protection. But before we assume the only option is house arrest at Mar a Lago, @mehdirhasan notes that other countries have figured out how to imprison former leaders.

The latest Fox News defense of Trump is that his fake electors scheme was no big deal, because JFK did something similar in 1960, in Hawaii.

.@renato_mariotti says that Trump's delay tactics will not work with Judge Chutkan:
"She's going to teach him, ultimately, that at the end of the day she's the decider and there's a real big consequence that comes if you're going to try to constantly flout the judge's rule."

"Here, it's important he have a timeout and in my view the timeout would be 'oh grab your toothbrush and spend about 3 to 5 days sitting in jail to think about how serious this is,'" @judgecordell tells @MehdiRHasan how she would handle Trump's online threats from the bench.

Razor-wire, water deprivation, family separations – these are just a few of the atrocities from Texas Gov. Abbott at the border. @mehdirhasan explains how the border program is more than cruel, and it’s a reminder of why Democrats need to stand up to the GOP.

Could the DOJ have charged Trump sooner in connection with Jan. 6?
"Yes," former federal prosecutor Ankush Khardori tells @mehdirhasan. "And we should have gotten it earlier."
What about people who say the DOJ couldn't have gone any faster?
"Yeah, those people are wrong."

“I think what you’re looking at,” @RepRiggleman tells @mehdirhasan, “is people running for vice president.”
