Former Vice President Mike Pence has confirmed that he took notes on his conversations with former President Trump leading up to the Jan. 6 riot, as Trump repeatedly pressured him to reject the results of the 2020 election during the certification in Congress.
It almost appears like there’s no chance Trump won’t go to jail.
Almost. Because he has yet to be punished when blatantly admitting to committing crimes.
I prefer to not set myself up for further disappointment. Remember when it almost appeared certain that Mueller was going to pin Russia conspiracy shit on Trump? All we got was a lot of “sure looks bad but not enough proof to indict” kinda stuff. Whether because he was kept on a tight leash or the investigation cut off too soon idk. Maybe both.
As much corruption as there is in politics at the higher levels, and as much as the richy-riches aren’t held to the same legal standard as the rest of us peons, I think it is a good idea to wait and see and not get ahead of ourselves.
There appeared no chance that he would win the 2016 elections so… I’ll believe it when I see it.
Gotta thank the electoral college (again) for that
Came down to like 100k votes in a handful of swing states that gave him the win.
Oh sure. But my point is that he should have been in jail even before he was a candidate. The justice system failed the American people years ago. I hope I’m wrong and he finally goes to prison.
The first criminal trial is March 2024, election in November. I don’t think he’ll be in jail before the election, and it’s hard to know what is going to happen, but he might win.
Considering how dumb trump is, he may just incriminate himself on day 1 of the trial, the jury deliberates and its all over by lunch.
Lol is that possible? Things can get weirder from here I guess.
He will be headed for prison or in prison until a republican wins the presidency.
I read this as “beheaded” at first and got excited
