    It depends on the sentencing, which is right before the RNC in a few days. I’ve heard the usual punishment for this kind of stuff is at most 4 years of prison, but for first time offenders it is usually suspended. So my guess is that it’s a big blob of nothing, again.

    Then again, imagine being assigned as parole officer to Trump.

      I doubt you could put him in prison, he’s still technically a former president, where would you put secret service for example? Lots of undefined legal gray area here

        I don’t think it’s the Secret Service or the logistics of the thing that’s the problem. They can just join the prison guards and work in their place in Trump’s ward. They don’t serve Trump, they serve the people. They can be Trump’s prison guards as well as his protectors.

        The bigger problem is that I don’t imagine G7 leaders would be keen to attend a summit at Rikers, or that Trump wouldn’t cause a constitutional crisis every single minute deliberately.

        where would you put secret service for example?

        In the guard room where they could watch him from far enough way that they wouldn’t have to listen to his constant complaining.
