I would think that if shit ever seriously hit the fan for them he would suddenly find a lot less allies in his cabinet than he thought.

But that is very much an uninformed armchair opinion.

What if they commit fraud 36 more times? How about then?

He would surely rather die than rehabilitate, and frankly probably won't have much choice in the matter given his age and condition, even if he were willing to try.

Mechanics work in metric mostly. You still come across some imperial sizes occasionally. Though recently that's been getting standardized a lot better.

None of that involved my feelings about him, only facts about how he has acted under his own power. If we were basing this on my feelings about him we'd have been rid of him in 2015. It is a fact that he will perform crimes constantly and it is a fact that he has not shown a shred of remorse or reconciliation even once, ever.

Prison is ostensibly for either prevention of crime or rehabilitation of criminals (ignoring the American for profit prison system for a moment). This one has proven himself willing to perform crime despite the threat of prison, and has proven himself unwilling to rehabilitate. As you said, proven no capacity for contrition.

Therefore, the stated reason for prison would have next to no effect on this prisoner. He will not rehabilitate and has proven himself undeterred by threat of punishment. Ergo, sounds like an excellent target for the death penalty, in fact that sounds like the exact sort of person the death penalty was originally instated for. People too dangerous to be left alive that refuse to change their ways.

Just saying, all the pieces fit.

It's "technically" a combat vehicle

Either that or just a test run to see how easy it is to sneak shit in on balloons. Apparently it worked.

Nah I'd believe that. That's exactly the sort of four dimensional genius business move that Musk is known for.
