I noticed some recent resignations at either 'State' or the White House. The resignations are over there being evidence that The IDF is preventing supplies from reaching civilians in Gaza while the US still claims the IDF is innocent in this matter. I don't have specific information or names.
He's wealthy, so he will be sentenced to some token thing. They'll take into consideration not only his age but how crazy he is. They'll decide that the stress of the trial is his sentence.
What do you base that assessment on? Is that based on his ready access to cash, or on his owning his own private plane? Is that based on the fact that he owns property in various countries? Or that he has multiple international contacts? Or is this assessment just based on Trump's honourable personal character?
He faced his accusers. He had a trial, what do you think was going on? Trump even had a chance to testify.
No! He was a commie. Mussolini is more his speed. He already served under another fascist.
I am sure that the judge is checking this out. His maximum is twenty. Though he was found guilty of 34 counts they would all be served concurrently.
Are you implying that we go for the death penalty?? That may be a tad to harsh.
What does flight risk have to do with his sentence?
Why would you feel concern, the judge has been very reasonable and given quite a bit of tolerance for Trump's actions. And what radical reaction are you referring to?
The problem for Trump is how he showed disrespect for the judge, witnesses, the legal system, lied constantly, threatened the judge's daughter, and violated the gag order 11 times, that all can be considered. Defendants who show respect and remorse for their acts get better sentences. The only thing Trump has going for him is the dilemma of his position as ex-president with protection from secret service, and him being a candidate. He also has the means to appeal and apveal and appeal, which will go on past the election. It really doesn't matter what the sentence is, Trump wll be able to delay it through appeals. If he doesn't win the election, and doesn't incite another organized violent attack, the legal system will run its course. Cannon and the SCOTUS won't have any reason to cover for him and delay due process.
Correct. It will be on Trump to be honest and contrite in the interview with the probation officer. I'm guessing he will be in the meeting alone and without any lawyer feeding him answers. I've heard he will get a mental health assessment too, which will likley not be a good outcome for Trump. My question is if these reports will be public record or sealed. If they are public record I could see Trump's lawyers filed a motion for secrecy, and the basis of that being privacy and national security. Frankly I think the reports should be public record so that we can know the results of his mental health assessment. It is of public interest to know these results for a candidate for president, and if there is any abnormality or defect. The public really hasn't had any honest reports of Trump's health since 2016. The reports that have been released are untrue and absurd.
Maximum is 4 years for this level of felony in NY. Typical non-violent first offender gets much less.
True.

Since the monetary fines allowed for this offence are meaningless to Trump, he will just get his sycophants to pay them and probation trivial, I suggest community service. Specifically 100 hours or so cleaning tidal wetlands or other swamp like areas.True.
"Sentencing is at the judge's discretion. While jail is an option, it's not usually assigned for this type of crime in Manhattan, legal experts and former prosecutors point out, especially for first-time offenders"
Could Trump go to prison? 5 quick questions about his conviction
Donald Trump’s conviction poses unique questions for the 2024 presidential race.
Whatever sentence he gets should be the same as any other person would get, no more and no less
One thing you need to remember... Where ever you want him to go, the SS goes with him.
Yeah, but these are generally low traffic areas that shouldn't be hard to control access to, especially if they are not announced beforehand.
You missed the point.
