One more thought - a POTUS can't pardon anyone, let alone himself, for a state crime. Only Federal. That's why they got so many people behind the NY and GA trials and put a dumbass in charge of the Federal trial.
Yes, but they had to link it to a federal crime to turn it into a felony and to avoid the statute of limitations. Without the federal crime, they have zero. Still just a thought, but it would have been the wise thing to do.
I am pretty sure that there is a quick path to the Supreme Court. The NY appellate Court for that area is all black women. So that would likely be a time waster. I am guessing that if the sentence has a big impact on the campaign/election, then they will go straight to the SC. Otherwise it will be a rallying call for the election and fixed afterwards.
Dude, make this a meme and blast it on the social media!
we should all make memes and blast it!
The last four Democrat presidents and the current resident were all felons. They just haven’t been convicted yet. Throw the father-son RINOs.
A thought: what if Trump pardoned himself before leaving office for all crimes to that point in time? This conviction would be null and void.

You are correct on both points. That is one of a dozen or more things that will get this farce overturned.
The cool thing is I expect it to be overturned somehow (SCOTUS, New York Court of Appeals, some other way?) before the Republican Convention.
