(1) takes or withholds, or offers or threatens to take or withhold, an official act, or
(2) influences, or offers or threatens to influence, the official act of another,
shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for not more than 15 years, or both, and may be disqualified from holding any office of honor, trust, or profit under the United States


Trump and Sanders fall under the "covered government persons" part of this law.

Lock them up? Lock them up?

If you feel that strongly about it, feel free to go do a citizens arrest of Donald Trump. I'm sure the secret service won't mind.

So. Only Republicans respect the flag and the anthem?

That's really the argument you want to make?

Have at it!

Well it would be Congress for him. Court for Sanders.

But we all know this isn't going to happen... because nothing matters anymore.
