Wouldn’t another federal crime such as election interference which is what this ultimately boils down to (IMO)be considered.

If convicted here or there, too many to count, will he ever be locked up in ANY KIND of facility? Please give me the correct answer…

No. Maybe a fine. I say give him a 25K salary and stick him in low income housing. No benefits.

I hope the media pushes back if Trump tries to play the" Biden's weaponization of the system card".

This investingation began under Trump's timeline adm.,

not BIDEN'S.,media should state that.Also not everyone is on cable networks(which is preaching to the choir).

Need to get this news on major networks,ABC ect .

Eveytime Trump falsely blames,tgen Bidenm adm.,needs to push back with simple credible facts and Trump to own his part.As in Trump's Abortion Ban,or Trump Pauses Border Solution.

My head is 😵‍💫 spinning! What seemed so simple: - the orange moron falsified business records to hide hush money paid to a woman he slept with (🤮) so America wouldn’t know or be influenced about his little tryst during a critical election period. I definitely agree it isn’t about the hush money - it is all the other really criminal elements. But my goodness! It’s a lot! Thanks for yr newsletter and good explanations regarding all the legal stuff! I’m finding so much great info on Substack! Thanks again and pace yourself- take care of yrself! We’re not going anywhere!👍🏿

If convicted and ultimately locked up, how does his Secret Service detail tag along?

Would they share a cell?

I’d say his detail should be dissolved and he should experience prison the same as any other felon.

If he is found guilty in this case, will he go to jail? Or will he be able to stay out of jail because he’s running for president and because “he is above the law”.

Will it be Rikers Island?

He’ll never go to a real jail.

I see now. Thank you for explaining. He’s going to get off, again.

You or I would not, but he is.

Well, then.

Agreed that the documents were taken in DC. But they were *retained* in Florida. And that's the crime that's the easiest to charge on the evidence they have. That crime - retention of defense documents - requires that the documents were requested to be returned but the defendant knowingly retained them anyway. That's exactly what happened with Trump. It's a total slam dunk. So I can see why they decided they needed to bring the case in Florida, but it's just highly unfortunate that Judge Cannon has the case (although I remain stubbornly optimistic that eventually she will be forced to let this go to trial, and a jury will convict on at least some of the counts).
