I actually don’t think there’s any uncertainty. He’s been quite clear about what he’ll do. He’ll kill all federal cases and ongoing federal investigations, pardon himself for everything he can pardon himself for, and all of the state proceedings will be paused until after his term. In the meantime he’ll “investigate,” threaten, and bully anyone involved in the various state cases, and given his age it is incredibly unlikely that legal proceedings will ever result in justice for his myriad crimes.
Yes, I full expect the 34 counts sentencing by Merchan to be placed on hold until Jan. 21st, 2029. I'm surprised anyone is confused on this.
Trump won, he gets to get off scot-free from all the charges and investigation. That was literally the reason Trump ran.
Well maybe. Depends with the new SCOTUS presumed immunity. Official acts wasn't well defined and while no one is thinking rape is an official act, the manner by which the evidence was collected can be questioned.
At this rate, the civil stuff might continue, but there's going to be so much resistance to the proceedings that they will effectively look as not even happening. The President can delay court motions because "I'm doing President stuff rn" and the Court has to presume that's true. Rise and repeat until his second term is over.
Even that's optimistic.
Endless term though cuz the state of the country and he needs to make it great again again still
Yup, the venal fuck is going to die in the White House instead of a jail cell.
