Must have been given access to internal polling.

If he had sentenced Trump next week it would have been the biggest donation contribution haul of 2024 for either candidate.

So, are they going to sentence him for this bogus conviction after he’s the President-Elect?

I’m sick of these evil bastards.

I think most people, including those here, have little idea how close to true that is and what it might entail.

Saw this morning on Fox Business that Merchan was being sued for financial record.

Wait till after the election, if there is an election. No matter who wins, all hell is going to break loose.

Once he sentences, the appeal process can begin and the case would be out of his control and leverage.

He maintains the fiction of conviction through Election Day.

The Colombian got instructions from Obama etc to back off, while strategies are being recalculated.

There are quite a few of us older folks that believe civil war is inevitable, hopefully after my time is up. I often wondered how the author of the Robin Hood legend got his inspiration, but now I’ve got the idea that the peasant’s desire to skewer the rulers with a volley of sharp, black fletched arrows was brought about by the same nonsense that we are seeing now.

Got to run, I’m shopping for a new bow this afternoon...

Just a few weeks ago, I read several articles that said on September 18th, Donald Trump WILL be sentenced to jail, and no doubt pay bail money.

I guess that is no longer written in stone, maybe not even in yogurt.

I’m serious when I say would have resulted in civil war. It would have been serious if he got sentenced to jail before elections. January 6 @ 10000 times

Well...

If this rapid anti-Trump “judge” is doing this, perhaps he’s been told Harris has no chance of winning, so he might as well swallow the bitter pill and go with this date, then Trump can simply pardon himself.

Two days before Thanksgiving, right about/just after the time of the annual turkey pardon.
