    I think that goes without saying. The court case is nonstop free press for Trump leading up to the election, and unfortunately would probably net him some undecided votes if he wins it. It’s basically just 24/7 advertising to his base.

      I fear we’re seeing a repeat of 2016 in that regard. I wish the media would just stop talking about him until there’s a verdict.

        Convicted Sex Offender Treason Trump did not have 6 court cases against him in 2016. He has already been found guilty of sexual assault by a jury but the Nazi affiliated media didn’t report it.

      More nonstop bad press for Convicted Sex Offender Treason Trump.

      and unfortunately would probably net him some undecided votes if he wins it.

      Pretty doubtful. He has about 6 active court cases. Ridiculous to spin that as a good thing. He is not only going to be losing he is going to prison.

      It’s basically just 24/7 advertising to his base.

      Those idiots are already idiots. Imagine how depressing it will be on election day to vote for a candidate who is sitting in prison.

          It’s crazy. I think every rational person in the US knows that trump should be in jail for a long, long time. But there is zero chance of him going to jail. At best (which would still be something given my lack of expectations) he’ll end up on house arrest. Which he’ll violate and nothing will happen.

            I’d be grateful for a “can’t be president anymore” for starters. Though I would prefer to also see him rot in jail for the rest of his life. Then again, even if he’ll probably go to some cushy high profile jail.

      If it’s just on the merits, he can’t win it.

      The entire process of them asking for documents back is heavily documented, and at the point you’ve got FBI agents with a warrant walking out with classified documents…. As incontrovertible proof he lied about not having them and was actively refusing to return them.
