John Dean summarizes, in his ending there, what he (undoubtedly), so many others, and we on this board, have been seeing since Trump first started attacking the press and other basic democratic institutions in the U.S. For at least eight years now Trump has relentlessly attacked all the institutions that have helped to make America as significant as it still is in the world today. While Dean made those comments toward the end, concluding with "...very different, and much more serious, and much more troubling" than Watergate, my thoughts were on all since TFFG arrived those years ago. Then i peeked at the other reply, AND LOL and behold ..
Donald Trump's real conspiracy: It's much larger than even Fani Willis imagines
Trump's Georgia indictment is impressive in scale. His conspiracy to end democracy is a lot bigger than that

So Donald Trump is finally being charged as the mob leader he has been for many years. It's about time.
[...]But Trump's conspiracy to falsify the Georgia vote count, as heinous and as blatant as it was, pales in comparison to his ongoing and highly successful effort to train a sizable chunk of the American public to despise their own government, to hate the free press, to dehumanize their political opponents, not to take even the most basic precautions in a public health emergency and to embrace all kinds of dangerous conspiracy theories.
P - Trump's co-conspirators in this larger scheme go well beyond the 18 people indicted this week and their 30 or so unindicted co-conspirators. They include dark money–funded Republican members of Congress, a number of Republican governors who are avidly experimenting with autocracy at the state level, the Federalist Society-approved majority on the Supreme Court, and the Fox News-Newsmax-OAN propaganda triad.
P - We could call this suggested indictment "The Conspiracy to Bring Down American Democracy," since that's precisely what it is.

there is all was. i swear (sorry, intentional
) Mr. Swearengen. 
Damn good job! 
Not only are Trump and his cronies dangerous enemies of American democracies who would wallow in luxury in their
very own self-created American fascist state, but white collar criminals with a mobster mindset? You better believe it.

Factbox: 'Prepare to die' – Most colourful alleged threats by Trump ally Stone

(Reuters) - Roger Stone, a longtime ally of U.S. President Donald Trump, allegedly called an associate “a rat,” threatened his dog and invoked “The Godfather” Mafia movies in a bid to stop him from testifying in an investigation run by U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office, according to court papers unsealed on Friday.
Stone was arrested in Florida on Friday and accused of lying to congressional investigators and tampering with a witness.
Prosecutors accuse the political provocateur of threatening an associate who hosted a radio program in an apparent attempt to stop the unnamed person from testifying to investigators probing Russian influence in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
The 24-page indictment is peppered with alleged threats, some with typos or grammatical errors, from Stone to the unnamed associate:
* “You are a rat. A stoolie. You backstab your friends-run your mouth my lawyers are dying Rip you to shreds,” Stone told the person in an April 9 email. He also threatened to “take that dog away from you,” and said, “I am so ready. Let’s get it on. Prepare to die (expletive).”
* “If you testify you’re a fool. Because of tromp I could never get away with a certain (sic) my Fifth Amendment rights but you can. I guarantee you are the one who gets indicted for perjury if you’re stupid enough to testify,” Stone told the person in a Dec. 1, 2017, text message.
* “You are so full of (expletive). You got nothing. Keep running your mouth and I’ll file a bar complaint against your friend,” Stone wrote in a May 21 email.
* Another Dec. 1 2017 message referred to a character in “The Godfather: Part II” who declines to testify to Congress after mobsters bring his brother from Italy to the hearing in an apparent threat to the man’s safety. Court papers said that Stone told the person to “do a ‘Frank Pentangeli.’”
