So, we all know that the convictions yesterday can not stand up to scrutiny, but how long will this take to sort out?
Granted I’m taking the judge being told no bail means Trump is free until the sentencing so that might make things less urgent, but can the file the appeal now, or will they need to wait until the sentence is given?
Its not just until sentencing. He will be free until the appeals are exhausted. This is well beyond the election timeline. So basically, nothing has changed since they released his mug shot, except now he can add "Felon!" to the mugshot.
The whole point of this exercise, from the DS vantage of this chessboard, is to get some kind of leverage to force him out of nomination (hoping people turn against him) and failing that forcing him to take on a DS VP like Nikki.
Well that certainly isn’t working out for them by the looks of things. Glad to know my fears of him being locked up post convention are unfounded though.
Nah, nothing to fret fren. Just the Boss getting more power ups.
As Mark Levin pointed out, appealing this corrupt ruling would be fake and gay. Following that path would be giving credibility to their lawless behavior.
The correct response is to go straight to the supreme court to seek legal remedy for the entire corrupt process, which violated the Constitution in multiple ways.
That may make sense if this all this was organic. Its really about timing. How long does Trump want the DS to think they cornered him? And for what? What else has to happen in this period? And also, do you want ot use this to expose the appeleate corruption as well?
Process to choose depends on the answer to these.
Seek Writ of Certiorari ?
I never understood why that movie was so hyped.
I keep reminding people of this. When it comes to "white collar crime" we've seen people out and about for years as they file appeal after appeal before ever seeing any jail time if at all.
