now lets talk about an appropriate prison sentence...

25 years without the possibility of pardon or parole sounds fair...

The max he will face would be 4 years, but I doubt he'll get more than another fine.

... 4 years each count. the fine and appeal will be expensive. trump needs to do some time and multiple violations of the gag order and bail conditions will be a nice hole card to play for the judge, if he decides to let him off the hook ...

... 4 years each count.

It's 1 1/2 to 4 years and they always run concurrent. Considering it's a former President with Secret Service personnel AND the lowest type of felony AND no one convicted previously has been given jail time, he'll get a slap on the dick and be sent home.

Although it is good to see Trump face the music, this is still just a private citizen Trump trial. 

What is really important in terms of historical precedent is bringing Trump to justice for his wrongdoing as PotUS.   In particular, the Big Lie campaign and all it entailed.

It is terrible to see how easy it is to cause our system to delay these trials so that the electorate will not have resolution before we vote.

This is a dark day for America.

This entire trial has been a sham, and it is nothing more than political persecution. The only reason they prosecuted Donald Trump is because Democrats are terrified that he will win reelection.

This disgraceful decision is legally baseless and should be overturned promptly on appeal. Any judge with a modicum of integrity would recognize that this entire trial has been utterly fraudulent.

I think I would enjoy watching you try and prove that claim.

I do know , or at least can guess who will win the popular vote in the state I live in, and that will be who gets the electoral college votes from the state ( all 3 of them).

 About the only way to prove or disprove anything , will be to take how many voted , subtract all the votes for each candidate and see if they match , just don't forget to factor in , some voters may leave that particular seat on the ballot , blank. Because as it stands currently , that is where my vote shall be found, with those leaving that seat blank.

You of course are free to try and prove otherwise.

I can accept whatever the results are for the presidential election no matter whom the electoral collage favors this go round without voting for that office, frankly I don't plan on complying or cooperating with either of those administrations irregardless of which wins. I haven't in the past during boths runs in office , don't plan on starting now either.

Imo , and yes it's just my opinion , it's sad we don't have ANY worthwhile candidates.

The fact that he blamed it all on Biden and any other scapegoats he can think of as the real culprit confirms his lifelong obsession of denying blame of anything and everything he has done wrong.and every law he has ever broken. He has no conscience when is relates to his own immediate family members, and the price they will also pay because of their name. 

To Trump, everyone is fair game, and he shows no remorse in pointing the finger of his own tiny hand at the devastation they will endure the rest of their life. While his two older sons and Ivanka voluntarily submit to their own peril, others if his family, such as Barron, are wrongly subjected to the un-American and criminal reputation of his own Father who sees himself guilt free of any wrong doing and refuses to accept any wrong doing at anyone's else's dire expense.

I believe he was investigated for self prescribing Amien as well but it didn't rise to the level of punishment beyond what they could prove concerning treating and prescribing for members of Congress or inappropriate sexual comments to subordinates, bullying and retaliation. 

They could not prove beyond dozens of affidavits that he routinely was drinking vodka on the job.  Covid actually helped him because it was normal to label one's coffee or water for health reasons.

The initial investigation started when Trump nominated Jackson to head the VA.  As things went downhill, Jackson withdrew his nomination.  

After a scathing Pentagon report in 2022, Jackson who had retired in 2019, three years after being promoted to Admiral, was demoted to Captain with the appropriate reduction in retirement pay.

What is unclear is if he had to repay the difference he collected from 2019 to 2022.

Math continues to challenge Ronnie who routinely yells people he retired after 30 years as a rear Admiral.

He officially was in the Navy 25 years.  ( Maybe he included medical school? )

None of his websites acknowledge his demotion to Captain and he continues to state ( not incorrectly) that he retired as an Admiral.

it's a shame when somebody that obviously has access to the internet can't find the information for themselves...

It seems all some can do is whine and then must have the last word.

Trump can no longer own a gun, have a security clearance or go to Scotland.

I don't believe that there are absolute restrictions on any of those without exceptions.  Whether or not Trump fits within any of the exceptions is another question.

I would say that the only way he can get a security clearance is to be elected POTUS again.

Yes, it's inconceivable but since we rest everything on what the FF wrote in the Constitution 250 years ago, if they didn't foresee it and codify that restriction, it doesn't apply.

It defies common sense, but then the chances of this Congress correcting it now are Slim and None.

am I misremembering that after he lost in 2020 that trump shut joe off from everything during the transition? if so, F trump, what are his sycophants going to say? I hate when democrats try to play hardball with a hollow plastic bat. an EO would keep trump from any classified briefings while he awaits trial for illegally and willfully retaining them previously, and being indicted for it. an EO might even expedite the bought and paid for federalist foot draggers in SCOTUS to render a faster decision.

it's basic when dealing with playground bully mentalities. they don't respect compromise, reason, or logic. they interpret that as weakness. I've dealt with these types of people all my life and when they test you, you fuck them up immediately and catastrophically, and only then will they respect you afterwards.

I heard, and I don't know if true, but entirely possible for that sore fucking loser, that on the day President Biden became President, the former 'president' toddler dismissed all White House staff.

there needs to be 2 briefings. one for trump with bogus info to pass on to putin, xi, and kim to entrap him into espionage, and then the real briefing for the president, trusted dept heads and intelligence professionals.

What The GOP is Not Saying

Amid the GOP suck-a-thon it is worth noting that the NY hush money/election interference case is just one of  many  legal challenges Trump faces.

You may even have forgotten this one from late 2022:  Jury finds Trump Organization guilty of tax fraud on all counts - ABC News

A Manhattan jury has found former President  Donald Trump's  namesake real estate company  guilty of criminal tax fraud,  three weeks after Trump announced a third presidential run. The jury found the two entities of the Trump Organization guilty as charged on all counts,   including scheme to defraud, conspiracy, criminal tax fraud and falsifying business records.

The Atlantic has a useful running tally of the rest:

  • The New York fraud case that Trump has already lost.

  • The Defamation and Sexual Assault cases that he has already lost (twice). The judge in the case has said that the jury found Trump liable for “rape.”

  • The Purloined Document case that charges Trump with “37 felonies in connection with his removal of documents from the White House when he left office, [including] willful retention of national-security information, obstruction of justice, withholding of documents, and false statements.”

  • The Fulton County Election Obstruction case, “a huge racketeering case against Trump and 18 others, alleging a conspiracy… with the aim of stealing the 2020 election.”

  • Jack Smith’s Election Subversion case, which charges Trump with four additional felonies for his corrupt attempts to remain in power after losing the 2020 election. This case is on hold while Trump’s claims of absolute immunity are considered by the Supreme Court.

**

Despite all of this, the GOP is set to nominate Trump next month for another term in office. The furious reaction to his 34 felony convictions is an exclamation point on the GOP’s refusal to regard Trump’s rap sheet as disqualifying.

Pay attention to what Republicans are saying .

Many complain that the charges are strictly political, while others object to the nature of the charges.  But no one is saying that he is   innocent.

Not even his most slavish butt-kissers are arguing that Trump did not schtupp a porn star while his wife was recovering from the birth of their child. His defenders know he is lying about that. They may argue that he did not commit a felony when he paid her hush money, but no one is arguing that he did not, in fact, pay her money to keep her quiet before the 2016 election.

The New York trial spotlights the sleazy world of Trumpism. And, whether or not his conspiracy constitutes a felony (it did), it was a remarkable reminder of the man’s character and his fitness for office. The cheating, the lies, the threats, the smears, the payoffs, the fraud, the coverups, the corruption.

Leave aside for a moment the verdict of the jury: the GOP is looking at all of this as saying, “Yeah, we’re fine with that.”

While the MAGAfied GOP objects to efforts to hold him legally accountable for his actions, vanishingly few deny that he took those actions. They know (because there’s a tape) that he made the call to find the phantom votes in Georgia; they know he cheats on his taxes; they know that he has contempt for women; they know he tried to derail the certification of the election; and they know that he took the documents and refused to give them back. They know that almost every word out of his mouth is a lie.

Trump’s Republican allies don’t want him held legally accountable for any of that. But they know he did it all. And they are okay with it.
