Trump is in excellent health so that’s not an issue.

The more stupid things they try, the easier Trump wins.

Time for the US Supreme Court to put an end to all of this BS.

Trump's sentencing hearing on the charges is scheduled for July 11, just days before the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

That's why I said last night that Trump should demand that the RNC move up its convention by a week to get around Merchan's sentencing date. And then hold the nomination virtually like Biden to expedite the nomination process.

That way, Merchan will now be sentencing the duly nominated general election candidate opposing Joe Biden for President. In fact, Trump should finalize his FEC papers ASAP after that so there is no doubt that Merchan is sentencing the official opposition candidate.

The test is to see if Merchan counters by moving up his sentencing date in retaliation. That would prove that the whole thing was a plot to keep Trump from running against Biden.

Yeah, but what would keep this evil corrupt Columbia judge from moving it up? You see he’ll play the game too. He ain’t stupid. He’s got all the corrupt powerful elites and RINOS behind him.

Just being a candidate won’t stop anything. He has to be in office.

That's what we want him to do.

He set the date. Have judges ever changed the date of sentencing after setting it just to screw the defendant?

If Merchan changes the date again to leapfrog the RNC convention, then it proves that the entire trial was a sham to keep Trump from running against Biden.

That’s my guess too. Sentence him to remain in NY under house arrest.

“This case was supposed to be the worst case of all time and a a guarantee for a hung jury or maybe they would do a misdemeanor.”

Whoever guaranteed that was a fool. The best outcome we could hope for was a hung jury, given this judge and jury pool.

Trump got as fair a trial as black men accused of raping white women in Mississippi in 1868 got. And white democrats would just keep saying, “Noone is above the law.”

This minor a@@ judge will NOT be sending a President to jail. It will not happen even if he tries— the judge is DOA if he tries this. He tickles the tail of the dragon— like tickling the demon core of a nuclear device. Beware, don’t Tread on U.S.

I think Trump should goad Biden to keep sending aid, troops, arms, etc. to Ukraine. Maybe Putin will help us out.

Maximum Juan will give him about 15 years by stacking consecutive sentences. Trump will be behind bars for a while as the judge will set an extraordinary bail for him to be out while on appeal. I think it’s over, the dems own all the mechanisms to make it happen.

Didn’t a Polish leader campaign from a jail cell and overwhelmingly defeat the tyrants?

The last time they tried an excessive bail the NY appeals court reduced it by a huge amount. This court could try the same nonsense again but I doubt it would stand.

I doubt you have a way of knowing that for sure.

Are you guessing but stating that as a fact? It doesn’t take much effort to add “I think” to your sentence.

I believe that the plan is for the judge to sentence Trump to jail in which he will be murdered.
