    Will the Jury Convict Trump?

    • Of course they won't.Continuity
    • Mountains of evidence says they will.CyBrainX
    • but this isn't the trial that will send him to prison.CyBrainX
    • I don't want to get my hopes up. Legal analysts have said from the beginning that this case isn't a slam dunk.yuekit
    • However it does seem incredibly clear that Trump did what he's accused of, bribing a porn star through his lawyer and then trying to hide the payments.yuekit
    • None of these trials will amount to anything. If nothing else, he's absolutely adept at escaping anything even resembling accountablility.Continuity
    • Over and over again.Continuity
    • He's not adept at anything. He's just been given a free pass by other GOP members of the crime family. This trial isn't the same.CyBrainX
    • I have this sick feeling that even if a jury alone finds him guilty, final judgement, Trump will still find a way to make it disappear. Fucking cunt.monospaced
    • Time and time again he’s avoided actual punishment. For anything. Most people do time for stuff far less than he’s committed.monospaced
    • Ffs, cohen is doing actual time for this crimemonospaced
    • One of the things commonly overlooked is that a president cannot pardon anyone for state level crimes. This case isn't federal.CyBrainX
    • Then, there's the issue of pardoning your own crimes. That doesn't even meet dictionary standards, let alone legal standards.CyBrainX
    • This article points out one hard cold truth that will likely be the outcome. Even a single juror holdout will lead to a mistrial and dropped charges.monospaced
    • @mono yup. I mean, look: the documents case keeps getting delayed, the Alabama one ... who knows wtf is going on with that, ditto the DC one.Continuity
    • He'll get re-elected and make almost all of that shit go away, except the Alabama one.Continuity
    • Meanwhile his supporters will cry victory, and be happy that an admitted adulterer and fraud will be president. Fucking insane retards.monospaced
    • Remember he was already found guilty in the business fraud case and of raping and defaming the journalist who sued him.yuekit
    • So he hasn't quite gotten out of everything. He'll probably have to pay hundreds of millions in damages as a result of those cases.yuekit
    • He hasn’t paid any of it.monospaced
    • I believe he's paid $150M out of the eventual $450M fine. He had to pay E. Jean Caroll about $80M.CyBrainX
