pretty sure the NYT had numerous articles during the trial from NYC and NYT experts who said jail time for a 1st time conviction would be very unusual for these charges but
Absolutely nothing will happen to “Teflon Don”, he learned from the best Roy Cohn to delay delay delay and a weak incompetent Merrick Garland let him get away with it, he belongs in prison not the White House

Are we supposed to be happy or something? 2X impeached sexual abuser felon who stole our secrets and tried desperately to overthrow the government will take an oath soon. Something seriously fucking wrong with the U.S., embarrassing AF, at best.
The longer we pretend he isn't mentally ill the more devastation we're going to experience.
