Criminally charged for what? Are you listening to THIS DOJ?
It depends on which investigation you are referring to. One criminal charge that the New York Southern District is prepared to charge him on, is falsifying records. Falsifying records IS a crime. Trump is still trying to hide his records to the point of contempt, swearing that he can't find them (yeah really good businessman - can't find his records) OR his phones
But despite his contempt, investigators were still able to find enough of this records to find evidence that they have been falsified. Or more specifically, the information in the records were falsified.
The January 6th trial is a little different because there is no precedent. No previous president has ever tried to overturn the election results... Nor has there ever been an attack by a president's followers on our Capitol. So it's new territory. People with a sense of decency KNOW these things are wrong without needing a precise description of the crime. The founders were probably thinking the same thing when they coined the term "high crimes" as a catch-all for any of the bad things a person of such elevated power can do.

The "mad mob" are the buffoons that attacked the Capitol, beat people up, including police officers and threatened to hang the vice president and drag the Speaker of the House out by her hair so they can put a bullet in her head. That's what a mad mob is. If you are referring to the 58% of Americans that want justice served, you can just call them decent Americans.
And no, they are not looking for "anything". It may look that way to you because there is so much discussion about so many different things that Trump did... The problem is that he committed so many transgressions that it's become a matter of which ones to focus on. I think the committee is pretty well focused however on the issue of trying to overturn a valid election. The investigations have exposed so much crap that Trumps inner-circle is falling apart with his cabinet and even his family members admitting that there was no evidence to support Trump's claim that the election was stolen. These are not the type of things one would see if the president was innocent.

But what are you, the DOJ, going to do about that problematic Constitution and the standing laws of the land? Dang it! Biden was supposed to have circumvented all that stuff by now. Can't he do ANYthing right?
I don't think the DOJ thinks the Constitution is problematic at all. If anyone should have a problem with the Constitution it would be Trump, not his prosecutors.
Maybe you ought to read the Constitution some day. ;)
