The problem is that in the meantime, he got elected to the presidency, served his term, irrevocably damaged the US’ international relations, incited an unsurrection, committed a bazillion other crimes, and looks poised to get to the presidency again. All the while we got through a Democratic term where they could build a fraction back up of what Trump destroyed while also fighting with their own failed politics (Biden is complicit in why student loans are a big problem now, and well there is the genocide thing).
I can understand the wheels of justice are slow and steady, but the fires of chaos are hot on its heels. I hope I’m wrong, but the US seems like it will elect a convicted felon to its highest office to both guide and represent it in this fucked up world we have right now.
Couldn’t agree more, and I’ve been a constant critic of the legal infatuation with Trump for years now. But on the day of the verdict, I’ll permit myself a little misguided celebratory hope, as a treat
He won’t, he’ll just go to the pub and have a pint, and this will all blow over. Rich people don’t have to follow the laws in America, you see
Maximum sentence per conviction is 5k or 4 years in prison… he’ll get a $170k fine then head down to the Winchester
wtf is that real? how on earth is 5k comparable to 4 years in prison?
Not McD’s?

Yeah I’d love to see his ass rot in prison but that’s not how America works.
