If his dictatorial aspirations are unsuccessful he's 100% going to prison.

Briefly. You've seen his unhealthy fascination with what cookie monster would call "some-time food, not all-the-time food", right? (When Cookie monster knows more about healthy choices than your president, it's a sign)

That's what I heard after his first term.

And during the Bush presidency for that matter

After his first term he was a 34 count convicted felon.

And yes. Bush should be hanged. Anyone who has presided over US mideast policy in the last 25 years should be hanged. And yes that includes Obama and Clinton.

Enough war crimes between them to make a Canadian blush.

The crimes he's convicted for are absolutist trivial compared to the crimes that US presidents and high level politicians (including Trump himself) commit on the regular. If he was actually going to face serious consequences for them, he wouldn't have been convicted.

Absolutely. But unfortunately they weren't, which is why I find the last decade of predictions about Trump going to jail so unconvincing.
