I just saw in the report that the judge could chuck him in a cell and since a future jail term is not out of the question the 'Wembley' song popped into my head 😃 You're hopefully right but for some the Emperor will always be naked 😕 Could that be for contempt of court? I see the judge cleared the court of everyone bar Trump - final warning? I wish you hadn't brought up the thought of a naked Trump - that's going to be hard to shake off. I believe so yes. You started it! 😉

😃 Isn't this a civil case 🎵 Put the champagne on ice He's going to jail twice 🎵 Isn't this a civil rather than a criminal case - in which case he can't go to jail? Not that the outcome isn't bad - he's looking at a massive fine, selling off his businesses and being unable to operate in New York. The notable thing for me is his increasingly bizarre attacks on those prosecuting him - it's getting to him. He's also making no attempt to provide evidence to support his case which now pretty much amounts to I'm Donald Trump so anything I do or say I'd fine. Hopefully it becomes an Emperor's New clothes moment for some of his supporters. He knows he has no defence so he's just making a bunch of contradictory statements which if he confuses the issue enough his Maga Clowns 🤡 will just cry foul. A good example was when he demanded to know "where was the Jury" knowing full well there was none as he didn't request one as was his right. It will be a good soundbite later that he was convicted by a crooked Judge and not by The People He doesn't even need to attend if he doesn't want to. The biggest blow is to his Ego laid bare that he was nowhere near as successful as he claimed to be. Being found guilty of cheating, lying and sharp illegal Business Practices he would see as a positive

Mind you, you do wonder about the competence of the people doing business with him.

Mind you, you do wonder about the competence of the people doing business with him. Sharp is a pejorative word for dishonest and I added illegal Your second point is interesting and I believe its one tranche of his defence In other words he admits that he inflated his financial Statements, the Judge already ruled pre-trial that he did, his defence is that the Banks should have known. Strangely I agree with him, proving it is another issue There had to be an element of collusion and turning a blind eye, but no Bank is going to admit it. The only matter to be decided are the penalties he will suffer

The only matter to be decided are the penalties he will suffer Yes I understand the pejorative sense but it's use is derived from the idea that those using these practices are mentally sharp/clever. What Trump did was too blatant to merit being called "sharp" in that sense. I understand Trump is claiming that because he inserted a "buyer beware" clause in his contracts any claims of wrong doing are null and void. The judge has already ruled this to be invalid - presumably because lying through your teeth isn't considered valid business practice.

To be fair given he's about to lose his business empire he probably needs a new job. As long as it doesn't involve anything more complicated than measuring the floor space of his own apartment he'll be fine. As you say - legend.

When you've got nothing better to do in life than be a sad Trump troll on a football message board? I've seen some sad s%48e on this board but I think this beats them all. Has the biggest failed loser man baby ex-president of all time gone to jail yet or do we have to wait a little longer?

It was a Rainy Day in Georgia for Donald today His ex Lawyer Sidney Powell pleaded Guilty to Election Subversion. She will receive a suspended sentence but with a condition she testifies against Trump, Tick Tock You may remember her as the Throaty Voiced one who made some extraordinary accusations against Venezuela, Cuba, China, George Soros etc from a podium while Rudy sweated profusely in the background It was quite a spectacle www.cnn.com/2023/10/19/politics/sidney-powell-fulton-county-georgia-2020-election-subversion/index.html

You do have to wonder about these people. Presumably, as a lawyer, she must have weighed up the consequences of spouting all the shit she did and doing all the illegal stuff - so this turncoat action must have been baked in to those deliberations all that time ago. Unless she genuinely thought it'd work, Trump would be declared winner and none of it would matter, which does make you question her ability to be a lawyer. If Trump does go to jail and get ruled out of standing, I wonder if de Santis will get the nomination by default? Or has Nikki Haley overtaken him? Exciting times ahead.

I have a feeling Trump will win the next election, I hope I'm wrong but Biden getting drawn into the Israel conflict may come back to haunt him. At the moment Trump has Biden where he wants him, any consequences of this war for the US could easily see Trump romp to victory if he is allowed to stand.

Trump could well end up in jail, winning the election (if he's allowed to stand) and running the country from jail or house arrest, until he pardons himself. That country is so fucked up politically that could easily be one of the least insane outcomes!

She's in a whole world of shit even after a reasonable deal to turn States evidence with a 6 year suspension She been disbarred and the Voting Machine Companies have brought a Civil Suit against her for damages I'd expect the Legal Fees alone might bankrupt her and she's already admitted the offence she's being accused of in the Civil Suit You have to wonder her motivation, she did seem deranged in her Podium Speeches was it ideological or naked ambition, who knows

Oh no question she's a Fruit Loop, at the infamous Press Conference in Georgia, Rudy introduced her a Donald's Senior Council Whether she was or not officially is irrelevant but what she knows and how she knows it is more important. Presumably the Prosecutors think what she has to say is important by offering immunity, whether anyone will believe her is another matter Here she is at the Jan 6 Hearings, it's a Doozy

Tries to end democracy and gets probation. Standard for the wealthy, I suppose. For all the talk of the US govt trying to uphold their virtues, they’ve been incredibly forgiving of treasonous filth like Nixon, Lee and Davis. No way is that changing with Trump.
