"The brief due Thursday (9/26) ā which is expected to exceed 200 pages, including exhibits, and is meant to convince courts Trump should be prosecuted for alleged obstruction and conspiracy criminal activity ā is a rare avenue for evidence to be aired in court before a trial.
Chutkan of the DC District Court, in a six-page opinion, said she would allowĀ such an outsized briefingĀ because the Supreme Court, in its recent decision to give TrumpāsĀ actions whileĀ president immunity from prosecution, has directed her as the trial judge to look closely at facts in the case to decide ifĀ some allegationsĀ could moveĀ forward to trial."
I wish I had any hope that this will lead to him rotting in a cell but, alas, itāll be a nothingburger like every other action against him. We live in an alternate universe now.
But heās losing and not the Republicans golden boy anymore. Maybe heās finally weakened enough to Finish Him!
the only thing thatās going to Finish Him! at this point are hamberders in the next 6 to 8 years

If you follow court cases, this kind of time is normal. The other actions are not nothingburgers, not at all.
Take the Sarah Palin email hack. Happened in Sept 2008, they zero in on him almost immediately, and heās charged in Oct. The trial doesnāt even happen until April 2010, and then sentenced that November. That was a relatively straightforward case against a nobody.
Or Kevin Mitnick, who was arrested for computer hacking in Feb 1995, charged in 1998, and pleads guilty in 1999.
If Trump doesnāt win the election, heās fucked. Only death will keep him out of jail. If he wins, itās still quite possible Merchan sentences him to jail (on state charges that quite clearly have nothing where he can claim immunity), and then things will be a little too interesting. What happens when a state sentences someone who is the President-elect? Iām a curious person by nature, but lets leave that question unanswered if we can avoid it.
Heāll just leave the country.
Eh, Iāll accept that outcome if it means he never comes back.
Wouldnāt that leave J.D. as the president? Not a better outcome. Maybe even slightly worse.
JD would last two weeks before a staffer found him sobbing under his desk.
I wonder where he would go?
Russia or Saudi Arabia. My guess would be Russia since thatās the best place to get Russian prostitutes to pee on you. Although Iām sure Saudi Arabia can provide that, too.
Fun little-known fact: Saudi Arabia provided political asylum for the rest of his miserable, syphilitic life to fucking Idi Amin after he was ousted from Uganda.
Donald will choose whichever location has the sex workers most resembling Ivanka.
Justice will not happen. But at least details will be aired one more time and a spotlight on how dangerous he is will shine shortly before the election.
Extremely sadly, if those details mattered anymore, we wouldnāt even have been talking about this guy in 2016 for more than a month or two.
I guess thereās a chance if something bad enough comes out. And I guess thereās value in stuff being fresh in peoplesā minds.
Especially this close to the election. Even if he is proven guilty in a cri.final court with overwhelming evidence, to convict him before the election would cause gun-toting riots. He would need to be replaced with only a few months to spare, and a more neutral candidate would be called in who might actually win the election, and still follow through with all the project 2025 insanity.
Heās already immune, unless this case takes a few more months to sort outā¦
