    He might be executed.

    Now, you may say “But that’s not what our legal system allows”, to which I ask you to look at history. Every dictator, on their path to becoming a dictator eliminates political opponents first. Then no one stands before them on their path to unrestricted dictatorship.

      Execution of a senator would be quite the step up. You gotta build a little more facism first before we hit that.

      Maybe year 2.5 we will get to senators being executed.
