I think the libs are doing this because they’re trying to convince the chuds that Trump is a criminal and that they shouldn’t support him. It will never work because Biden is also definitely a criminal; the entire american government is criminal. The libs are also worried about Trump winning in 2024 (even though Biden and the Democrats are the greatest and most progressive team in the history of the universe and definitely cannot fail; only WE can fail THEM).

“I don’t know how ole donnie will wriggle out of this one!” but imprisoning presidents is a regular thing outside of the USA so I’m not sure why it couldn’t happen here. Chuds will respond with stochastic terrorism and suicide-by-cop at the very least.

Presidents don't go to jail. Bill Clinton is embroiled in the trafficking ring, Bush ~~did 9/11~~ started the 2nd American-Iraq war on wildly false claims killing a million people, Reagan directed the Iran-Contra affair, none of them have spent a second in handcuffs. There is more I'm missing but I don't feel like getting too mad today. They think Trump will because "it's different this time" but it isn't, he's the same as the rest of them, he's not going to jail.

there's a freakin cheeto in the big house!!!

seriously though, in my mind i think they are actually trying to pin something on him that disqualifies him from running for president. in my heart i know that none of that shit actually matters and he will run again in 2024

I've maintained for ages that I don't believe that he'll ever face any real consequences but know idk, I feel like something must happen, even if it's just 1 year house arrest at one of his mansions or something

While I dont think anything serious is gonna happen...I think it would be funny if Trump fled to Russia to escape prison. Plus points if he creates a government in exile.

probably not, but him running for president from jail would be insanely funny

The American establishment will never allow the precedent of sending a former president to jail

No, but I'd be okay with being proven wrong

I have been around long enough to know that there won't be any justice.

Anyone who tells you they know which way this will swing is lying to you, even if they end up being right.

Here's the range of possibilities.

1. HE FAILS TO STALL THE TRIALS AND GETS CLAPPED WELL BEFORE THE ELECTION (unlikely)

• a) Trump is actually about to face justice, ranging from serious to only partially kid-gloved, and his narcissism makes him go all Fuhrerbunker on us. OR
• b) Trump gets something like the minimum time for all his crimes but that adds up and he's old, he spends 5-10 years behind bars and then dies. OR
• c) Trump gets like a year, which makes him lose.
• d)Trump gets like a year, and he wins, and it's the funniest shit EVER. He's very unlikely to win from prison - that would hurt his chances with normal voters. But if that does happen, Biden and the governors will absolutely absolutely absolutely pardon him
• e) Trump gets like a fucking week which probably helps him, maybe helps him a lot.

.

2. HE STALLS UNTIL AFTER/DURING THE ELECTION:

• a) he wins the race and nothing happens to him at all ever
• b) he loses and he gets one of the sentences above
• c) he loses, gets one of the sentences above, and gets fucking pardoned by Biden for unity

.

Notice I didn't include the possibility that he actually gets sentenced to like 200 years in prison or whatever. They aren't doing that shit

Oh also if he dies during some short prison term, they're gonna posthumously pardon him.

I thought nothing would ever happen to him, and yeah it still might not, but it's DEFINITELY within reasonable possibility that he'll be punished. He's being indicted for shit that presidents don't need to normally do, like coups and murders. The next presidents can all easily avoid all that dumb shit

no, next question please

Probably get a slap on the wrist like a fine or something and libs will be like "Ah! Well. Nevertheless," and respect is because it's tHe rUlE oF lAw.

Ah. Well nevertheless,

The thing is Trump is too brazen and stupid to use his rich/powerful guy immunity. He publicly dares the justice system to stop him in such a high profile that no other rich powerful guy ever would. He practically forced them to indict him because he’s too dumb to play the game.

I thought he would get indicted after the J6 Committee because it gave DOJ enough political cover to not be total cowards and then the seal would be broken after that for more charges. But even then I was skeptical he would ever see a day behind actual bars, however now there is looking like a real shot he might get bail revoked because he’s incapable of not witness tampering and disparaging judges.

Not anymore than the previous 3 indictments. All they are doing is giving him and the cable infotainment channels publicity and ratings. His cult just sees the public show and how they are making him a martyr in their eyes. Trump's folowers will just dig thier heels in even more.

What I wonder is what consequences these people think can come of it, aside from all the other reasons presidents don't go to jail: how do you put someone with secret service protection in a prison?
