“Is anyone shocked by this sentence?”

I’m shocked that a member of the Democrat elite isn’t getting away with it completely.

I suspect that most of this is window dressing and the reality is that he’s not going to face any actual penalties when the paperwork gets done.

He’s pretty much getting away with it. If I was pulled over for drunk driving in California I would fully expect to lose my license to drive. On the first offense.

The only thing that kept this from getting swept under the rug was the fact that another vehicle was involved. The police might be crooked and compliant, but once another insurance company is involved, all bets are off.

So how is it that he won’t have to serve any time for his DUI after wrecking both cars

AND injuring the other driver? They already walked back the cocaine part...and passenger?

Jesse Watters at FOXNews is making a big deal out of this - normally democrats get off scot free. Democrats have no shame - but midterms are coming up and they don't want to look as corrupt as they are.

I’m shocked that he was visibly intoxicated after blowing only .082.

He is on three years of probation, he already has served two days in jail, he has a $7,000 dollar fine, will do one day of community service and has to have an ignition interlock device that he blows into every time he tries to start his car.
Of course, to a multimillionaire the fine is small and inconsequential. If he gets another DUI he will really spend some time in jail and pay huge fines.
If I had that kind of money I would hire someone to drive me around, but some people just like to drive a car.
