Given the serious crimes they have already committed, all members of the cabinet would likely face criminal prosecution under a new administration—even within the completely dysfunctional U.S. legal system.

I'm not holding my breath. It would be great if I'm wrong, but my bingo card has the next admin proclaiming "now is the time for healing and unity, not vengeance" instead of actually enforcing the consequences that are supposed to come with actions.

And if they do that, then it'll be a lesson to the next fucker that the lesson is to go farther and commit more crimes, because consequences don't exist, so you might as well set yourself up as President For Life and make plans to pass your regime off to your favorite child.

They do have a history of giving clemency to those who try to destroy the will of the people so this would be a predictable outcome.

Instead of the chop chop required.

If you think the next administration is going to be anything better than the same hand in a different glove then you're deluding yourself. The only way out of this for the US is a revolution. These people will not give up power, they will need to be removed.
