Funny he’s not presenting his report in Georgia, where he alleges all this awfulness happened.

I’m reading today that these latest charges are the ones which really will sink him if he’s convicted. These are state charges, so the President can’t subsequently pardon someone once convicted of them, and Georgia is one of the few states that won’t allow a governor to issue pardons for state convictions at all. Plus, what he’s accused of carries a minimum 5-year jail term on conviction.

So no future Republican president of the Union and no future Republican governor of Georgia will be able to spring him from jail, should he end up there.

The stakes are high.
