Can you imagine the kind of conversations going on in Trump world where he thought this was a good idea and then has to back out. It's an absolute clown show.

Court case will be compelling viewing.

Adderall does strange things to the brain when used for prolonged periods. Really shouldn't be used by people with Dementia.

I can't see how she can avoid prison. Last night she was on Twitter begging for donations so she could pay her legal fees. I'd put her solidly in the 2-hole in the stupidity rankings of everybody who has been indicted so I doubt she's smart enough to cut any kind of deal. So basically she's a broke moron who is caught up in a very serious RICO indictment where the other defendants have more resources and are more than willing to let her take the fall for them.

Ordinarily you would say that she should cut a deal but I wonder tbh if there is anything for her to do a deal on……ultimately she was a nobody defending speeding charges before grifting her way into Trumps team and none of the legal defences were planned by her so she likely doesn’t have anything to offer prosecutors..

So can someone answer me this, let’s say the 3 Federal cases win or lose, doesn’t matter as if Trump won the election he could simply pardon himself (possibly), what happens if he’s jailed for Georgia and wins the election?

Would the secret service protect him as POTUS in jail? I believe there’s nothing (legally) to stop him running and winning from a jail cell (which is nuts as felons can’t vote). I’m a bit confused.

Easy, just put him up in ADX Florence - he won’t need much Secret Service as his cell would be impenetrable and on double watch 24/7. Stick a zoom setup in there so he can take meetings.

In a Rico case getting just 1 person to flip is a big deal. Even if they don't add much to the bigger picture. Basically its like saying that small individual crimes as part if a much bigger enterprise and the prosecution has to prove its all li key together.

So if one person says Yes I did some stuff and it was all part of a bigger crime then that is huge. Get 3 or 4 and it becomes a slam dunk. Rico laws are designed to work like that, so a small insignificant crime and guilty plea can escalate quickly.

Of course, but they have 30 cooperating witnesses already, is 31 going to be the deal closer?

Sounds a bit like ‘The Trumpan show’.

Would be perfect for the world. He’s incarcerated and the bubble revolves around him, he thinks he’s in charge and actors just interact with him. They can sell the viewing rights to the MAGA RWNJ and it’ll pay for itself.
