President Jailed

   The former president of South Africa, Jacob Zuma, has been jailed for refusing to answer questions about corruption in his administration. Zuma "repeatedly attacked the courts and even predicted a popular uprising against judges," according to a CBS News report.
   Now there is the question whether something similar could happen in the U.S.
   Prosecutors are gathering evidence with great care and will soon file charges against the American ex-president, probably after they get Allan Weisselberg, the now arrested former chief financial officer for Donald Trump, to flip and testify against the ex-president.
   Trump has already indicated he will abandon Weisselberg and not come to his defense. It's also possible that even Trump's children will be arrested, and he will abandon them also.
  The problem prosecutors in New York face is the massive public support for the ex-president, which would lead to violence, as it has in South Africa.
