I know we're living in the crapsack timeline, but I didn't realize it was a crapsack made of little shit people that the Republicans sculpted like they were Play-Doh and then threw them in the sack and made screaming noises, pretending the little shit people were screaming, before declaring that sack to be their new second-in-command after Trump.

    If he's convicted on almost ANY of those 91 indictments on his shoulders, he's basically eligible for the rest of his life in prison. There's A LOT of serious charges there. I want to say most carry a 10 year minimum on the low end and 20+ on the high. So… changes are he isn't getting away with anything here imo.

      Except not all of those charges disqualify him from holding office, and there's nothing preventing him from running from prison. Then what happens next? What if he wins? It's not really that far fetched to imagine. I agree, I think it's unlikely, but I didn't think it was likely Hillary would shit the bed in 2016, either. So here we are.

        but you're making a big assumption that the middle of the road folks out there are going to vote for dude in prison which just isn't going to happen
