    I'd be okay with him going into exile in North Korea.

    yeah. let him torture Kim for a while.

    The realistic conclusion to that would be Trump spilling Top Secret info to North Korea. If not willingly, then via torture. But let’s be honest: It would probably be willingly.

    Honestly, I don't think he has the awareness or attention span to be an accurate mole if he's limited to working from memory.

    Lol absolutely. Can you imagine Trump trying to recite government intel from memory?

    "So the document said bigly assets were all all over the country. My uncle, college professor in the nuclear


    Hillary! Can you believe that, folks? Hillary. Johnathan Trump, went to MIT did the thing, this and that. Tremendous, it was tremendous this government secrets I am telling you now."

    I was solidly in that boat for a while too, but seeing how many of his co-conspirators are tripping over themselves to testify against him lately gives me hope.
    That's the problem with surrounding yourself with shady people who only have their own interests in mind. They're not loyal to him, he only kept them around because they told him what he wanted to hear, and they only told him what he wanted to hear because it helped them advance their own personal interests.

    I'll believe it when I see it. We will never see him behind bars. Two tiered justice system.

    he probably wouldn't last a year in solitary.

    Solitary confinement isn't really solitary most of the time. It's far less pitch black rooms with a slat you slide a tray of slop into, and more of a lights always on, talking to your neighbor through the vents/shouting chess moves at each other.

    Not that it isn't inhumane in its own way, but many people seem to think that you're basically sensory deprived and that's just not the case.

    “When you guys put somebody in the car and you’re protecting their head, you know, the way you put their hand over?” Trump said, miming the physical motion of an officer shielding a suspect’s head to keep it from bumping against the squad car. “Like, don’t hit their head, and they just killed somebody — don’t hit their head,” Trump continued. “I said, you can take the hand away, okay?”

    I hope the prison guards remember this, it's only fair.

    Yes, I'm sure Rolling Stone has excellent insights into Trump's private fretting.

    I predicted he would die in prison when he clinched the GOP nomination in 2016- there was no way, I decided, he wouldn't abuse his office and break a shitload of laws. The last 6 years has been a rude reminder that I seem to have wildly overestimated the capacity and will of America's political and law enforcement establishments to hold anyone like him accountable for even the kinds of crimes he's confessed to on the record.

    I think it's important to cover his trials but I wish we'd ignore these articles which are rooted in gossip and nothing more. It's just clickbait.

    Apparently he just "ordered" congressional GOP members to shut down the government so they can't fund the DOJ lmaooo someone is getting desperate.

    So how does secret service work here

    I assume he'd go to the lowest security safest place ever

    More likely he'd go to an insanely high security place, he can't be trusted around other people.

    ADX Florence is built for exactly that kind of prisoner: spies, terrorists, etc.

    If someone tells you they cannot let something enter their mind, that means they are thinking about it constantly.

    I'm waiting for a Hallmark Channel redemption arc for him. He goes to prison, slowly befriends his fellow cell mates and empathizes with them, and emerges a changed man who gives up his fortune in order to fight the injustices against the common man.

    Because prison always turns people into a better version of themselves

    I still have more faith in vigilante justice; legal just will continue to spin its wheels in the mud until he succumbs to his decades long suicide-by-cheeseburger. Our official resources have thus far proven to be less than worthless.

    I'd be fucking delighted to be wrong, though!

    ...then again, Trump seems to be fracturing the hell out of the GOP, so keeping him as a wrench in the spokes isn't without a silver lining, albeit unsavory.

    He'll likely be playing tennis at minimum security Club Fed if it's federal, but Georgia doesn't seem to do special treatment. If he goes in on Georgia state charges, he could end up in a for real penitentiary.

    You know what I never worry about? Going to prison. I'm able to not worry about that because I don't go around breaking laws.
