I think he might be talking about the investigators and the prosectors. You have to admit their bravery and you wouldn't want to be them if he wins the election.

Yet in the Good ol' US of A he can be sent to prison, become President and then immediately give himself a pardon and walk away a free man.

Which of course is his main motivation to be President.

Not sure what his issue is, an orange jumpsuit would match his complexion nicely.

This is the essential point here. You have someone who is basically a political thug trying to become President. The possibility of such a person being President and then pursuing a personal witch hunt against people who were following the law and its due process is alarming.

It also shows the mendacity of those that endorse him and his actions.

If Trump is actually convicted of anything substantial, I’ll eat my ferret.

Because you don't think he's guilty, or you think he'll get away with it through corruption/abuse of power/biased judges/courts?

Just saying from the end of year one of his term , we had the highest profit since our records began , and that is the late 18th century. Even more than our earlier record which was post ww2 to pre Castro!

The US deficit was $564 trillion in 2016, and $3,133 trillion in 2020, so swings/roundabouts…

It depends on what charge, they’ve thrown so much at him.

In regards to Jan 6th, he’s not guilty of anything.

In regards to the 126 charges brought by the New York DA, nothing will come of those.

In regards to the keeping of classified documents, I’m unsure about that, potential but I’m sure a good lawyer will keep him out.

I just don’t see him going down.

Re: Trump Organization Found Guilty Of Tax Fraud At Trial

Who decides if Trump is guilty or not? If it's a jury, will a majority verdict suffice or will it need to be unanimous? (I appreciate that there may be different situations for the various sets of charges.)

Well, it should be based on the evidence, nothing else. Fat chance of that.

He’d just better hope for a jury packed with right wing rebublicans.

Jury, and for serious crimes, unanimous verdicts.
