US Politics Thread

They were discussing this on Newsnight last night.

From that, I can't say I was overly confident it's a given Trump will be charged and WON'T be the president in 2024.

Another stop the world I want to get off moment.

Then again I recall many commentators ridiculing the idea there was any chance he'd be President the first time around, so who knows.

I wouldn’t put it past America to have Trump as President whilst he’s in jail.

I know it’s part of a very old constitution, and understandable why Americans would stick to it, but the fact that he could go to jail but then pardon himself and then sit in the Whitehouse seems absolutely crackers.

Could somebody from the US tell me that I’m reading it wrong, this couldn’t really happen?

I think it's one of those things that's technically legal because it's so fucking stupid that nobody ever thought to make a law against it.
