If you care to wager on that, I would be willing to bet against him going to jail (even though I hope he does). At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

I agree I'd absolutely love to see him do time But There is no way it will ever happen. He'd have to literally shoot somebody on the street with witnesses to do time. Anything short of that means no time. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

This cannot be, Trump has never changed his story on anything! |

No bet. The way the country is divided now it will take just ONE Trumpie on the jury to vote not to convict, and you know damn well there will be at least one on his jury. A sad situation for America when power "trumps" judicial fairness and equality under the law. |

I was thinking of posting "Does anyone REALLY think Donald Trump will be getting ANY jail/prison time?" And then I saw your post. Donald is super wealthy, powerful, and a former President. No way will he be seeing any time behind gray bars. Alec Baldwin's gun should have been CGI. Would have prevented the tragedy. Facts. |

He isn't immune from prosecution. Were he to shoot his wife down like a dog in front of witnesses without lawful justification I am certain he'd be arrested, charged, and convicted. The feds have him dead to rights on this records thing: I hope they run with it. Uncle Joe is too nice, not pushing the AG to go after the fat blob. |

Probably the closest in recent history we have is Nixon, who only avoided charged because he resigned before the election and his VP pardoned him once taking power. Trump does not have somebody in power to pardon him (though that could change in the future, because even if he is charged, if in 3-9 years there is a Republican President he can pardon him and get him out of prison). Nixon also had a similar attitude as Trump, "If the President does it, it is not illegal". If Trump was wise he would have resigned on January 6th and had Pence pardon him for "All related crimes" (or whatever the language of Nixon's pardon was). But, Trump was probably too egotistical to do this, or maybe Pence would not agree (and after Trump encouraged his hanging, who can blame him....) |

About January 6th, Trump was already getting ready to be out of the White House anyways in just two weeks as he had lost the Election to Joe Biden. Had this happened on January 26th, just 20 days later, Joe would have been the one in the hot seat for the Capitol Riot ... Alec Baldwin's gun should have been CGI. Would have prevented the tragedy.
