If you buy the Courts it does not matter.
Counterpoint: it has worked his entire life
Appeals Court on the other hand… seems to work incredibly well for him.
sure seems it works great with the Supreme court
He will do and say anything he wants to, with zero consequences.
So far they seem to work spectacularly well as the system makes the assumption that all these delay / disrupt activities come from a place of honesty rather than one designed to draw out the process indefinitely. Anyone else would be jailed for this behavior while their trial proceeds.
He HAS to be in court, every day his case is in session, for the next 6-8 weeks. Campaigning from the Courthouse under 30+ felony charges will be a great look for him.
Trump: I’m not worried, I will have OJ helping me.
Aide: He’s dead.
Trump: What? Oh shit.
Courtroom rules are for poor people.
An errant tweet during the trial could find him ordered into a cell overnight without a phone. It would be delightful.
When? So far he’s been fucking around with zero finding out.
At this point, his likely play is to try to force a mistrial. Whether out of control antics hurt or help remains to be seen.
The only way they won’t is if he goes to jail NOW.
I call bullshit on the headline. He never faces consequences for his actions
People need to realize we’re in a situation where Trump is being tried as a former President of the United States. That alone will save him from the potential of being jailed. I don’t care what he gets found guilty of, he’ll be sentenced with “time served” to make it a documented sentencing but nothing more.
He will never spend a single second in jail, no matter how guilty they find him. Ever.
Idk, they’ve worked thus far
They have so far. And it makes our justice system look PATHETIC.
Except they have mostly. The problem is that even when he’s found guilty something has always come up to bail him out. I mean look at the last case, $450m+ in bond that the appellate court just said nah, cut by over 50% and gave him 10 more days. Then his own lawyers fuck up the paperwork, and more time to fix it. I just want him to actually be held to the same fucking standard a normal citizen would be held to 1 fucking time in his life.
He is answering the question that many have asked: “how far can a heterosexual white man with a high net worth go?”
I’ve watched an idiot with terrible business skills become a reality TV show star, president, and now I get to watch him get treated with kid gloves and escape charges that would destroy the life of anyone posting here.
His success and continued lack of consequences for his own actions is sending a message to everyone in his class. The likes of Mark Zuckerberg are watching and realizing: “ignorance is not a barrier, experience isn’t a barrier, and the courts will go easy on me. If he had my money and my intelligence, he wouldn’t have even gotten caught. Maybe my fears were unfounded. If he can do it, maybe I can too.”
There’s alot of jobs you can’t have as a felon but being the potus ain’t one ig. Wtf?
They won’t if Merchan shows a firm hand.
He’s gonna need those high capacity diapers for the long day in court.
How old is this picture? Dude is a lot older and saggier now
Will they, though? I hope so
He’s not been jailed yet for all his bullshit. Just reprimanded. The justice system is very different for the rich.
The humiliation this narcissist will endure will be worth watching. It will be stormy weather for Lard Feltersnatch con HushMoney. [Vote.org](http://Vote.org)
At his age, he can’t go from court to campaigning. He’ll eventually burn out.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
So far he just keeps getting away with things and nobody wants to punish him or hold him to any sort of standards.
