The best outcome of this situation is jury nullification. If the jury nullifies, we'll have proven the law does not prosecute heroic deeds of this caliber. It would be the biggest blow to capitalism in generations.
"he who saves his country has committed no crimes"
i threw up in my mouth a bit quoting trump, but throwing their words back at them is always satisfying.
If it makes you feel any better, Trump was quoting Napoleon.
The guy who tried to take over Europe was arrested and banished (to run a tropical island, so like most rich and powerful was given a super kushy "punishment" that's more like a forced retirement), returned and tried to take over Europe a second time and was banished again (this time to an actually unpleasant island off the coast of Africa under active guard) might not be the best person for trump to be quoting in this context...
During his banishment to Corsica, Napoleon fully modernized the island by updating and standardizing education, road building and performed other administrative duties in the government.
