Wow. the sentencing will be before the election. Oh wow. Too bad, too sad. Let's blame the one who is at fault: Donald Trump. The one who committed crimes, finally got caught, and now he is going to prison. Each charge is 1 to 4 years so if judge gives Max of 4 years and consolidate them all together, then that's a four-year sentence. It should also be noted that he is a menace to society - with his many many threats throughout the trial. That is why he should go to prison as soon as he is sentenced. That's fine. Then he will get out of prison to attend trial number 2 the DC insurrection. And he will get 30 years for that... Don will die in prison. That's fine. And I wish him a very very long life!

Salute to Judge Marchan. He is an excellent and fair Judge who is showing what it means to be impartial and to uphold Law and Order without fearing some spineless Al Capone wannabes. Much respect to him for showing the global community there are still judges in the USA who are not bought or afraid to stand for truth and integrity. Vote 🗳️ 💙💙💙 to restore our democracy and integrity.

[@penelopesimpsonadams624]

Cult members do not have critical thinking skills. This is about mind-control of vulnerable people...like ginny thomas who has already been initiated into a cult prior to trump's cult. These are people who listen to repetitive gaslighting messages and begin to be programmed. They become like AI's and one cannot make sense of them. They lose all ability to be self-reflective and think critically about their thoughts and behaviors.

Nail on head. Also the Trump funded lawyer for Cassidy Hutchison who tried to keep her onside until she wised up and got independent counsel. Mob tactics. He's paying for lawyers (or rather his imbecilic followers are) for co-defendents in Docs case and Georgia for the same reason. Should count as witness tampering.
