I'd like to see him manage to wiggle his way out of this one. I'm not American so I'm not familiar with the systems in place and all, but from everything I've seen, well... it's not looking good for him. At all.
But honestly, with Trump legendary incompetence and ability to keep on digging his own grave, I'm barely here for the politics, this is just good entertainment at this point. Even if I know that while this is funny, this will probably be remembered as anything but.
I don't think he can actually get out of this one, but he can still litigate it to hell and back. It will depend on which judges his various challenges land in front of and what their capacity for his bullshit is. But he's 77 and eats garbage and doesn't exercise. Very real possibility he just croaks before he ever sees the inside of a cell.
Jesus didnt realise that trump was 77 already :o then Biden is not too far off
The vast majority of federal cases end with a plea deal. Any idea if that could include forfeiting any right to run for public office? Would be great for peace of mind if so
I want him to rip DeSantis to shreds first. Hopefully he does it out of sheer spite anyway if he can't run.
Well he already entered his pleas today, "Not Guilty", and demanded (as is his right), a jury trial. The chances for a deal with the DOJ at this point are zilch, unless they can file amended charges based on a deal to enter guilty plea to some charges?
That would look way too much like partisan coercion and would absolutely blow up in Biden and the Democrats' faces. They need to have a real iron-clad case if they're going to make this work.
Trump is arrested and Kutcher scores $2bn. Seems to me like he got played by his own son-in-law.
First for everything in the opposite direction
