Do you think they’ll throw the book at him? I don't. The Army is going to play politics with this one. Throwing the book at him for desertion and collaboration with the enemy would be the right thing to do, but it would take political courage. And I see very little of that lately.
A "happy medium" outcome with a much reduced or suspended sentence - that's my prediction.

I totally agree with you.
They’re going to take the easy way out on this one.
If anything, the jury will be stacked with jurors who are told to get this over with without media attention.

I predict they convict on all/most charges and he gets the max.

...........I respectfully disagree. This will be decided by Donald Trump in a whisper to Mad Dog somewhere and that will be the end of that.
I don’t see Trump going easy on this sob after going on worldwide TV and calling him a Traitor.
The Chain of Command starts with Trump. A few weeks ago it started with Obama. Big difference.
