As for getting rid of secret service protection, I don’t think that’s a good idea. It certainly wouldn’t have a chance of passing either. Former Presidents no matter the crimes committed need to be protected no matter how we feel about them. While I believe nobody should be above the law and as things are now normal incarceration just wouldn’t work for ex presidents, it’s in the country’s best interests to protect them no matter what.

Which is the real purpose for Democrats, isn't it?

Democrats can't beat Trump in the election, so they are trying to knee-cap him with phony made-up "lawfare" charges, to falsely smear him before an election.
NOT because Trump actually did anything wrong, but just to smear him, to cripple him before the elecion.

But Trump is still rising in the polls, because voters are onto the Democrats' deceitful abuse and weaponization of lawfare.
It is a case of the Democrat-Bolsheviks crying wolf once too often, and the public no longer believes them. LOOK at the list of investigations, false indictments and false impeachments, from 2016 to present.
NINE STRAIGHT YEARS of relenless false accusations against Trump.
Every one of them eventually proven false and without evidence, and often filed only for openly partisan reasons.
On cases and "novel" new laws that have never existed or been tried before.
Custom-made on the fly by the Democrat-Bolshevik FBI , DOJ, and CIA, just for Trump.
