They have manipulated everyone.
Trump is totally immune for any crimes he commits.
He can grant anyone a pardon when he leaves office.
And they all have totally free long term legal representation.

Plus they will be trillionaires when he leaves office.
They assume they are untouchable.

Yes I don't think it is going to end well for them.
They will be the most hated people on earth.
