    There is no good outcome even in the cards. If he goes to jail it will feed into his base’s persecution complex. If he gets off easy, nothing’s more insufferable than an unpunished malignant narcissist. If he gets a huge fine, he will not pay.

      Gotta think long term.

      The “good outcome” is no jail sentence until after the election (or just probation). trump loses the election, and then is found guilty on any other case and then goes to jail for that because he’s no longer a “first time offender”.

      The worst outcome is sentenced to prison before the election, but reporting is delayed till after the election and then Trump wins.

      If that happens, he’s never giving up power and he won’t wait till the next election to pull some more stupid shit.

        It’s hilarious that you guys think he’s more likely to win if he’s sentenced to jail.

        This makes no sense at all.

        You seem to think he’ll gain votes from this guilty verdict when everything points to the opposite.

        You guys give magats so much more credit than they deserve these people are cowards to their cores.
