He might be executed.

Now, you may say "But that's not what our legal system allows", to which I ask you to look at history. Every dictator, on their path to becoming a dictator eliminates political opponents first. Then no one stands before them on their path to unrestricted dictatorship.

Execution of a senator would be quite the step up. You gotta build a little more facism first before we hit that.

Maybe year 2.5 we will get to senators being executed.

Maybe, but there might just be a tall hotel window somewhere that he happens to fall out of. Wouldn’t be surprised at this point

Arresting people in the streets and trafficking them to blacksites without due process is also illegal... And yet...
