It’s because it would keep America together. I won’t give my opinion here, but that’s what I fully expect to happen. He won’t go to prison, but if he’s smart, he’ll die both out of office, and as a free man.
I'm also in the UK.
Yes, there is always the prison option.
He should stay in jail at least as long as any Jan. 6th insurrectionist +1day. IMO

A day late and a dollar short. Why do these guys finally go public with views regarding Trump's toxicity that half the country figured out years ago. Complaining retroactively about his behavior insults all those Americans alarmed by his behavior yet fell of deaf ears of those he put in power because power is what they wanted. At any cost.JUN 18, 2023
[...]Christie, Barr compare Trump to a child
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) and former Attorney General Bill Barr each took jabs at former President Trump on Sunday, comparing him to a child and casting him as unfit to lead the cou…
“He will always put his own interests, and gratifying his own ego, ahead of everything else, including the country’s interest, there’s no question about it,” Barr said of Trump, in an interview with Robert Costa on CBS News’s “Face the Nation.”
“He’s like a nine-year-old, defiant nine-year-old kid, who’s always pushing the glass toward the edge of the table, defying his parents to stop him from doing it. It’s a means of self-assertion and exerting his dominance over other people. And he’s a very petty individual who will always put his interests ahead of the country’s, his personal gratification of his ego, but our country can’t be a therapy session for a troubled man like this,” Barr said of Trump.

Christie, who helped both of Trump’s previous bids at the White House, recalled Trump’s promise in 2016 to hire the best people to work in his Cabinet and that he would know how to manage them well. Christie then listed various officials who left his administration and who subsequently faced a barrage of insults about their intelligence and competence.
“Donald Trump, if you believe what he said when they left, that means he didn’t pick the very best people and doesn’t know how to pick personnel. If you believe what — about them what he said at the beginning, the great stuff, then this guy is the worst manager in the history of the American presidency,” Christie said of Trump.
“Either way, Republicans should listen to what he says. He’s a petulant child when someone disagrees with him … if you disagree with Donald Trump, the petulant child comes out and he calls you names,” Christie added.
[...]Mar-A-Lago Sought 380 Foreign Workers While Trump Had Access To Classified Docs
Trump stored classified documents in the club's ballroom, a bathroom, his bedroom, a storage room and his office.
... Trump stored classified documents in the ballroom, a bathroom, his bedroom, a storage room and his office. It’s unclear who exactly could get inside those areas, but it would stand to reason that some Mar-a-Lago staff could access them.
Mar-a-Lago relies on foreign nationals to work as servers, cooks and housekeepers. In 2016, the club sought 65 foreign workers. The figure has increased every year since, with the exception of 2020, when the club shut down in the early days of the pandemic and furloughed more than 150 employees. Last winter, Mar-a-Lago sought out 91 foreign workers, according to records filed with the Department of Labor.

FIVE EYES: Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, United States & New Zealand
So, national security implications for at least 4 Allied nations and their troops as well. Crazy how he has put the USofA at risk with non-Allies by letting these documents lay about willy-nilly and improperly stored/secured - risking not just the US and her security, but their partner nations too. The implications of this intelligence failure are huge. It is not business as usual. The US really needs to do something to ensure this is NEVER allowed to happen again.
In pointing that out, because the seriousness of the situation is NOT so obvious to some of his sycophants, it struck me that there had been an article linked in here earlier that something crawed at my brain as hincky and I just couldn't figure it out ... but now it's struck me as to what was gnawing at my brain:
Donald Trump is reportedly obsessed with boxes
A New York Times report details the former president's love of his “beautiful mind”...www.sfgate.com
MSNBC host: Trump’s “deeply weird” obsession with his boxes suggests “this is all about the money”
Report detailing Trump's attachment to "beautiful mind" boxes may have hinted at the "motive," Joe Scarborough says.
If Mr. Trump would notice that the boxes had been "riffled through" ... isn't that the implication that boxes acually were "riffled through" by others who were not him? WHO??? For they have also potentially viewed documents not for their eyes which put the US and her Allies at risk ...
