chasfh Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 How sad is it that any number of states will not allow felons to vote for president, but every one of them will allow a convicted felon to be on their ballot? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 There have got to be some Trump voters out there who can comprehend that this was a jury of his peers right? That this was the jury his attorneys agreed on? That this verdict was unanimous? That even one hold out could have made him not a felon, and died a MAGA hero? Probably not. Still a good day.

His fixer, Michael Cohen received 3 years under Trump's Justice Dept for virtually the same crime. Throw in multiple counts of contempt. He needs to go home to Father Vlad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichiganCardinal Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 I generally believe he should be treated like any other criminal. Which starts with getting sentenced per the guidelines. Generally that would be a year or two probation, a fine, maybe community service…. if he just shuts up and takes his sentence. But he’s not going to do that. He and his cronies are probably going to go after jurors and their families, the clerks and their families, the judge and his family, and more in the next 5 weeks. He’s going to double down on his conduct. Continue to claim he did nothing wrong. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are massive disruptions at the courthouse, with MAGAs protesting and swatting (maybe even a 1/6 repeat at the sentencing). It’s going to be hard for Merchan to watch the next five weeks and not sentence with that in mind. As he should, and as he would for any other convicted felon.

MichiganCardinal Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 I know the voting restriction in Florida was debunked, but I wonder how other countries will react. He’s not allowed in Canada, Japan, or Australia with a felony. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is less likely than Biden pardoning Trump then declines to run himself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
