Trump’s sentencing in his New York hush money case is scheduled for July 11.

    My prediction - Trump will die of old age, never having seen jail, living a 1% lifestyle.

      I would be happy enough if he gets sentenced to prison but is suddenly “too ill” or, you know, his bone spurs or whatever, and gets house arrest. Whatever as long as he doesn’t rally or run for president anymore

        While that would be better than my prediction, it would remain as proof there is a different justice system for the rich and powerful, IMO.

        Yes, my bare minimum “want” in general is Trump no longer a force on US politics. But achieving that goal still falls far, far short of justice for his actions.

          Totally agree.

          The circular paradox is that if he (they) weren’t “rich” (from an access to capital standpoint), they wouldn’t have been able to commit such felonies, which they can defend and absorb…because they’re “rich”.

          ad infinitum
