    I feel like the absolute harshest punishment I can reasonably see him ever facing is nothing more than a ban from holding public office.

    That’s it.

    Maaaaaybe a few months of house arrest at Mar a Lago. Maybe punitive fines.

    No prison time. Nothing that will affect his wealth. Nothing that will deplatform him as the grotesque figurehead of American conservatism until he dies.

    I’m confident he will play kingmaker for that half of the American political landscape until he’s dead.

      Nah, the feds know where those missing top-secret files ended up at by now. The DoJ doesn’t spend this amount of time, money & manpower to hand out a slap on the wrist.

      Nothing that will affect his wealth.

      New York is quite literally about to make Trump insolvent.

        I hope you’re right, but I’m not holding my breath.

          Yes, literally. It would have been last week, but Judge Engorgon decided he needed to tack on more zeros since he discovered Trump’s financial controller committed perjury in his court room.
