...about Trump being sentenced to jail....

[Chillicothe]

i have held the belief that this criminal ain't going behind bars for this conviction (or any of the 34 convictions).
Rather, I thought he'd be sentenced to house-arrest, or some kind of ankle bracelet gig with a public service requirement.

However, i am seeing talking-heads state there are 'aggravating factors', i.e., his continuing defiance, contempt, and lack of remorse. Those kinds of behaviors typically are problematic for convicted and awaiting sentencing convicts. At least, I always thought that remorse was sorta a given in order to persuade the court that you are sorry, and won't sin again.

So, can Judge Merchan, after being publicly attacked in the media by Trump, by his daughter being publicly attacked in the media, after hearing the convicted felon state publicly that the judge, the trial, and jury were all "rigged"......well, what can Judge Merchan do to impress upon this felon that his behavior ain't productive to our society's rule-of-law ethic? And needs to change.

I said right at the beginning that the only way he gets jail time is if he talks himself into it.

First time, elderly, low grade felon should get probation, a large fine and community service

But showing total disrespect for the judicial system, repeated contempt and no contrition could get him some jail time to be served in House Arrest

Trump's continuing defiance, contempt, and lack of remorse may encourage the Judge to use the Ban Hammer.

He should make an example out of Trump. Next, he's gonna preside over Bannon and make another example on how law and order gets served up.

Great points, okfine. Mess with the bull, get the horns. Go, Judge Merchan!

The complete morphosis of the Left from "sex drugs and rock n roll" rebels to Bootlickers of Power is uncanny, entertaining and sometimes hilarious.

Yes Trump, bow to these middling "judges" OR ELSE

Calling your judge corrupt and inept is not a wise strategy prior to sentencing

The complete morphosis of the right from the "party of law and order" to a cult of personality, running a lifelong con artist and criminal for President of the nation, is both surprising and sad.

Just reading your posts shows how bad it is. Your crowing enthusiasm for a lifelong liar and criminal and your certainty that he's the one being persecuted, shows the depths of your radicalization.

Trump cheated in school, he cheated the draft, he cheated his business partners who filed thousands of lawsuits to collect unpaid bills, he cheated the banks in his bankruptcies, he cheated his investors and business partners, he cheated his niece and nephew out of their inheritance, he cheated on his taxes, he cheats at golf, he cheated on all three of his wives, and he cheated to win the election in 2016 and tried to overthrow the government in 2020.

What made you think, he wouldn't cheat YOU?

man-o-man, if trump gets in we are sure to see a 180 on justice from almost everyone in this thread...my prediction is if trump should make it the white liberals here [everywhere for that matter] will be using their finest ned beatty pig squealing imitations.

Speaking ones mind in this political climate is no longer a right we enjoy...

RW, I was over in your neck of the woods recently, went to a wedding in Mt. Vernon, mineral springs? where "Action Park" used to be I think...spent a couple of days there, loved it, both beautiful and relaxing.

If Trump gets in, he'll be rounding everyone up. See Chile, in the 1970's.

 

[leftwinger]

If it was only a real crime.

"Plan"????
Why would my poor avatar have a plan?
Rather, a criminal conviction sounds like very poor planning on the part of others.
Like the criminal and his enablers.

No?

 

[Dragonlady]

If only you had a real brain!

Of course it was a real crime. Trump certainly thought it was a real crime before HE was charged. That's why Trump's DOJ gave David Pecker immunity from prosecution. Trump thought it was a "real crime" when he indicted, tried and convicted Michael Cohen.

Only when Trump was indicted for the same crimes he was prosecuting when he was President, did he have a problem with ANY of these charges.

well if he sticks to the script it will only be his political enemies and those who stand by them, which seems to be quite acceptable in our politics these days.

 

[Frankeneinstein]

"Plan"????

Yeah, you know, a plan, so things don't blow up in your face.

kaboom

Take cover chi-co!

No?
