Felon Donald Trump Sentenced to Unconditional Discharge

Donald Trump was sentenced to an unconditional discharge in Manhattan today, having been convicted of 34 felonies.

He avoids a fine, restitution, probation, home confinement and prison. But the felony convictions stand, unless overturned on appeal.

This is the first time in American history that a man who has been convicted of a felony will occupy a desk in the oval office.

In only ten days, the carnival barker almost half of Americans have come to hate will be back in that office. Remember who put him there -- the people who voted for him. Shorter version: The majority of American voters are off their rocker. They, as well as Trump, are the problem. It will take a generation to reverse the damage he will inflict and the loss of prestige to America.

    Drumpf wanted the debt ceiling to be eliminated, but the GOP couldn't bring themselves to do that so brazenly (yet).

    I wonder if they'll need a Weimar-like economy before they can institute whatever-follows-a-Weimar Republic.

    he will expire in office!

    If so it could be on camera.

    a tiny bit of accountability by proxy. Here and there.

    Not exactly a legal concept but still.


    Rudy Giuliani has been held in contempt of court for the second time in a week, as the former New York mayor and top Donald Trump lawyer's fall from grace continues because of the false information he spread after the 2020 election," CNN reports.

    "District Judge Beryl Howell's ruling Friday came as Giuliani continues to make false insinuations about two Georgia election workers, long after they won a $150 million defamation verdict against him and he agreed to stop slandering them."



    Rudy just can't keep his trap shut. (5.00 / 3) (#3)
