Not a chance. Trump will never do a day inside.
What stupid shit has Trump done today?

Traditionally, it'd start looking like he was going to do a day inside, then he'd suddenly jump on a plane and reappear in some dubious third-world country. Russia might be a good candidate.

Lots of detail on the NYT site https://www.nytimes.com/live/2022/06/09/us/jan-6-hearings They're really gunning for him. Hard to see how he can run in 2024.
But it's America, so he'll probably be able to run and he'll get squillions in donations because of his victimisation at these hearings.

Quite something, though.
- Trump supported the assasination of Mike Pence. When he learned supporters were chanting “hang Mike Pence,” Trump said “Maybe our supporters have the right idea,” Liz Cheney revealed on Thursday. “Mike Pence deserves it,” the president added.
- Congressman Scott Perry, a Republican from Pennsylvania, inquired about a pardon after the 6 January riot. Perry played a key role in efforts to overturning the election.
- Ivanka Trump told the committee she was persuaded by Attorney General William Barr’s statement that there was no widespread fraud in the election. “I respect attorney general Barr, so I accepted what he was saying.”
- Jared Kushner dismissed the White House counsel’s threats to resign on 6 January, saying it seemed more like whining to him
- Attorney General William Barr told Trump his claims of a stolen election were “bullshit”.
- A Trump campaign lawyer told Mark Meadows in November that they weren’t finding widespread fraud. “So there’s no there there,” Meadows told the campaign lawyer.

I know. Let's hope it stops any chance for him in 2024 though.

It'll be a badge of honour for him. He'll be surfing on the whole witch hunt/victim wave for years to come.

By 2024 these hearings will be a distant memory and Republicans in the House will have impeached Biden over Afghanistan or whatever else they come up with - if Trump doesn't win the Republican nomination, it'll be because of the rise of some younger and even more Trumpy rival.

Hopefully to an ever dwindling fan base. Won't hold my breath though
Far right is growing in the US and so is the number of domestic terror plots, there's an appetite for what Trump and his pals offer.
It's the next GOP leaders to be wary of. They might be more competent. And more inspirational.

Trump's Behavior on Jan. 6, Explained by Expert on Fascism
"If you're having a coup and summoned everybody and you expect to be anointed as the head of a new illegitimate government, you have to be there."
The Secret Service has been a rogue agency for quite a while. There's been several scandals with them including agents who partied with prostitutes, agents who hung out with women later determined to be foreign agents, agents who have been arrested in child predator stings, sexting with minors, drinking on the job, etc. Drinking and hiring prostitutes just seems to be a day on the job for them.
There's the Columbian scandal:
Secret Service revokes security clearances of 11 accused of misconduct
11 agents and officers on leave following prostitution scandal; More than 10 military personnel also involved, official says
www.cbsnews.com
Korean scandal:
Two Secret Service members to be sent home for misconduct in South Korea: Report - Washington Examiner
Two Secret Service members will be sent home from South Korea after an alcohol-fueled incident ended with the local police involved and both members being placed on administrative leave, a new report says. An agent and an armed physical security specialist, who had been sent to the country ahead...
www.washingtonexaminer.com
There's this odd incident:
Four U.S. Secret Service agents suspended over ties to phony cops
The U.S. Secret Service has suspended four agents linked to two men accused of impersonating federal law enforcement officers who authorities said gave gifts worth thousands of dollars to agency personnel including one assigned to protect President Joe Biden's wife.
www.reuters.com
Most of those are just sex scandals, but if what the Vice President alleged happened on Jan. 6 is true, we have an agency that's out of control and in need of some serious reorganization, if not dissolution.

Biden made a few changes to the team that directly protects the President. There was a (not unfounded) worry that the previous agents in charge were Trump loyalists. This still falls far short of what's really needed.

If they haven't yet, I'm sure they will. They'll throw everything at the wall and see if it sticks.

Think they probably hate Republicans who believe in science and so on more than they hate anyone else.

There is also an awful lot of loon v loon action going on in their primaries as well. There have been some pretty epic post-primary tantrums from the 'nuttier than squirrel shit' faction.

Not sure. Probably the former layered on top of the latter, like icing.
