So far it's guilty on all counts. Now what????
Donald J. Trump…convicted felon. Ouch.
Fuck being the President! You can't work at McDonalds with that criminal record!
Unfortunately, he can. Nothing in the constitution that says he can't. Doesn't mean he will be elected. But if he wins the election can assume the office. I know, thats nuts. But, its the way it is.

Hide and watch.
This is EXACTLY like what you whine when anyone on the left uses the word "we."
Now cite us some proof that "most people" believe what you say.
Or STFU.

Campaign in the wake of the verdict they crashed the site!

PS I don’t care if anyone on the left uses the word “we” it’s just you and your whiner buddy’s use of it.
Let's see how much money was actually raised before you splooge all over your keyboard.
Premature congratulations much? LOL
Oh, not to mention that a bunch of MAGAtes getting fleeced by Trump (again) isn't. "most people." Pinhead.
Caused the mad rush. Sure he got that adrenaline or mad rush of donations (39M)...but that'll be his biggest haul. It will die down.

So much money for his legal defense …sad.
But how much is of that is going for his legal defense? With the RNC controlling the donations.. Lara Trump . Maybe Trump can now afford to do his rallies
Its still a lot of trailer park trash that are donating. But that will dry up.Biden is still far ahead with his war chest
In another subthread, I linked to two New York Times stories. Trump out raised Biden in April and is closing the gap. The second story, post verdict, reported on Trump’s 24 hour haul of $56 million dollars, again more than Biden raised the entire month of April.
Joe won EVERY previous month. Joe will have a bigger war chest and he is not a convicted felon. Oh, and his VP and staff all back him. Can Trump say that??????
BUT, BUT, BUT, Robert keeps wanting to read from the old one…
Something Trump never understood. He needs centrists/moderates/independents who are on the fence about him and this verdict is VERY troubling. Unless gets a favorable appeal, I think he is doomed.
Nailed it. Trumps base, crazy as they are will never leave him. Its the centrists/moderates/independents he'll lose. They'll be tired of his whining and constant complaining.
Give it time, soon most will say, "I'm tired of defending this guy"
Since first indicted in criminal courts, many polls have been conducted. Most of the headlines go to polls showing that Trump loses substantial support among Independents and even Republicans. E.g.,
http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4369225-quarter-trump-supporters-oppose-him-on-ticket-if-convicted-survey/
Almost a quarter of Trump supporters oppose having him on ticket if convicted.
.
But the polls are all phrased differently so it's hard to judge their consistency and actual numbers (-25%, -15%, -10%, ... -?%).
.
I am now thinking that flip-flopping Nikki Haley came out last week and said she would vote for Trump in order to (a) get support from Trumpers in order to (b) swoop in at the RNC Convention and proclaim, "We can't run a felon for Pres. Pick me instead! Pick me!"
Unfortunately, he can. Nothing in the constitution that says he can't. Doesn't mean he will be elected. But if he wins the election can assume the office. I know, thats nuts. But, its the way it is.

Trump 0, Jury 12
No. Unless "most people" to you means maga folks. Most people don't see this as lawfare at all. trump's base is shedding in size. One tiny example is that a friend of mine who voted for trump said trump crossed a line when J6 happened. Now take that sentiment with entire country into account. Most people have a moral compass. They know right from wrong. Okay, this will galvanize some of the maga base. But, really, how big is trump's base these days? And, after today?
I know he can be President, but he should not be allowed to be based being found guilty of 34 felonies. He wouldn't be hired to even clean toilets with that kind of criminal record and there will be more to come.
The people of NY vs Trump spoke today and I believe the people of the U.S. vs Trump will speak again in November. Biden will win 4 more years. This orange clown is a loser and justice was served today.
And if he was an immigrant he'd be barred from citizenship.

Is it likely Trump will be granted an expedited appeal? Could SCOTUS get this before the election or is it likely they would turn it down as it is state court related?
From legal commentaries I'm scanning, SCOTUS has no jurisdiction over this NYS case. Trump will appeal in the NYS courts. When he loses in court, he can appeal to the NYS governor for a pardon. When he is denied a NYS pardon, he will have to serve out his sentence (whatever it might be: house-arrest; community service [picking up trash on I95?]; mandatory attendance and a passing grade from behavior modification classes [taught by Mary Trump!!] ; teach 100 Sunday School classes at an African Methodist Episcopal Church ; ... any more suggestions?)

So you can run and be elected President with as a convicted felon, but you can't vote (as a convicted felon).
Cohen spent 3 years for the same thing....or probation?
I'm pulling for a "Lock him up" sentence
C'mon lets play
He won't get any prison time. It is a white collar crime and he was never convicted of anything before. Maybe probation but they will drag this out with appeals for as long a possible.
Anyway, this will be appealed for years and could ultimately get to the Supreme Court despite being a state crime. So he'll never see the inside of a cell.
And iwe’ll know if it’s prison time and its term?
Then it’ll go to appeals with us knowing the penalty?
