“There’s no posse and there’s no retinue and there’s no family,” says Chris Hayes on Trump’s arraignment. “The guy is alone. He is solo rolling with the lawyers who hope his checks clear.”

      It’s never gonna happen. At most he’ll become bogged down in lawsuits and charges till he dies. But there’s no way they’ll ever allow a u.s president to set foot in jail

        Hard disagree.

        This stupid cuck is going to jail 100% if he does not win the next presidential election. Our legal system can be pretty fucked up sometimes but it’s not that fucked up, this guy literally tried to overthrow our democracy.

          I’m not saying he’s not going to jail, but I am saying our system is absolutely fucked. This dude is free years after openly trying to overthrow our democratic processes. The most blatant example (Georgia) isn’t even one of the indictments he’s currently facing.

          cuck

          I hate this word so much because his supporters used it ad nauseum.

          But I’m okay with it just this one time.

          All the legal analysis I read has suggested house arrest because of the secret service for life deal.

          I hope he does real time but I’m not optimistic.

            House arrest in Trump’s giant resort mansion.

            It makes sense, but it’s more than a little unsatisfying.

            Personally I’d love to see Trump in ADX Florence.

          I was told in my local pub yesterday that someone with a criminal record can still be president. But I’m British, and drink with people who chat shit. The landlord in said pub also said that Oceangate was eaten by a megalodon, and landlords like to chat shit.

          If he doesn’t win the next presidential election, he’ll go to jail… I’d say that’s REALLY fucked up bud.

      Agreed the laptop should be plenty evidence how little they care

      And the leaked call where they just used Ukraine to get more support? Actually disgusting
