    I'd be surprised if anything happens to him. He's on national news right now. Spouting more lies.

    Officially a criminal. Officially a fraudster.
    He'll probably still get in! 🤦

    Don't former Presidents get a Secret Service protection for life. How is that going to work in prison?

    In the words of the song....there may be trouble ahead. Trump still defiantly playing the victim game - could get very nasty.

    He called the judge corrupt. How can you get away with that? Lock the p@@@k up.

    I can not understand how he gets away with it.

    Nothing in constitution to stop a felon being POTUS.
    The situation wasn't considered by the Founding Fathers.

    This situation simply reflects the moral decline of the USA. Here is a bloke who cheated on his wife and tried to cover it up by paying off a porn actress to keep stumm using his business account monies to do so. And some people want this man to be their president! For God bless America read God help America.

    I think you'll find the brainiacs in your population voted for Brexit led by a few pernicious venal types. Take a look in the mirror, bub.

    ..and there's the rub. A complete intolerance of anyone - even if it's in the millions - whose opinions differ from yours. Sort of puts your previous posts into context..

    I believe that if he were to be imprisoned he couldn't vote himself but can still stand as a presidential candidate. A tad bizarre, methinks.

    First offence. My prediction is fines, community service or something minor. It will not stop him campaigning. This is the most trivial of cases - paying a tart some cash to stay quiet. The heavier charges, but much harder to prove, are the incidents at the White House and the other stuff. I think those will not land on him.

    What makes this entire election fascinating to me is this. We know that 40% either side are die hard Dems and Reps. The 20% meat in the middle (seing voters) now have to weigh up:

    1. The corporate sector: Higher business foreclosures, real estate crisis, failing small-mid banks, retail mall destruction and transport companies going under at a rate of knots - all of this due to high interest rates

    2. Private company layoffs, partly cushioned by additional government jobs

    3. Personal debt situation: Credit card, auto loans and student loan delinquencies sky rocketing to levels not seen in 15 years

    4. Home sales volumes crashing at rates not seen for 15-20 years, and with it, house prices. Wealth effect leaving them poorer

    5. Immigration at the border becoming a hot topic

    6. Inflation still pinching the wallet. Prices are not falling - they are going up less but costs are still a little higher than last two years

    7. The political choice: an 80 year old felon, tart-botherer who runs around calling judges corrupt and said injecting bleach would get rid of CoVid versus an even older man who struggles to read from a scripted autocue, who covers up for his criminal son, and under his watch alone, due to his perceived weakness, has allowed Xi Xinping, Putin and Ayatollah of Iran run amok against American / Western interests, resulting in shipping attacks and inflationary spikes.

    Seriously, trying to present one as bad and one as good is clinically insane. If people want to get sucked into blue v red, Left v Right, then more fool them for being tribal baboons. This is by some country mile the worst situation for Americans I can ever recall in my lifetime. And with it, the worst set of political options to deal with the problem.

    All I can say is that Biden or Trump, if the USA can get to 2028 without triggering World War Three, the collapse of the dollar, a US Government Bonds crisis, a banking crisis or a US civil war, they will be the luckiest country on the planet.

    He was found guilty of offences related to trying to deceive the electorate. I don't think that's trivial.

    I value being a citizen of a republic and I think the legal system needs to protect us against those who seek to subvert it.

    2 - he wont go to jail - any former US president gets 24/7 cover - the FBI wont be in his cell

    3 - it doesnt legally stop him from running

    4 - it will galvanise his victim status

    5 - the only saving grace is that US citizens wont want to vote for a felon - but most of those will be democrats anyway t - i dont think this will make any difference, it just makes the US more divided - which is a bad thing for all of us

    so now we have felon vs dementia patient - what a choice

    Seemed madness the first time given ages if nothing else.

    The US must have some much younger, more level headed, sane candidates to put forward?

    Re: Trump guilty on all charges

    No doubt Andrew Neil and those in this thread telling us what will happen next are falling back on all of those precedents we have of former Presidents who have been found guilty in criminal cases. We are in unchartered territory, it wouldn’t surprise me either way what happens next, I don’t know enough about attitudes in the USA in the mid 2020s to make a judgment, but it seems to me that until the 2016 election, a case like this would have been fatal for anyone running for President.
