It wouldn’t be fair to have your felony conviction negatively impact your opportunities. This is how justice works right?

    I think the idea is that on sentencing they’re just going to take him into custody so they don’t want to give him the “election interference!” out.

      I thought general consensus is he isn’t realistically looking at jail time for this?

      I don’t ever expect him to actually be held accountable, sadly. I just want to see the justice system actually functioning in a way that protects this country as a whole. Trump did a ton of damage personally to this country, but to see the entire court system, the only thing we have to stave off change through less civil means, is a pure joke is the greater tragedy for me.

      We could always theorize the laws and voting and our representatives would prevent something like this former presidency from ruining our country, but what have we seen but paper tigers?
