Trump faces 34 felony counts of falsifying

[Emile]

business records to cover up a hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

Each count carries a maximum sentence of four years.

What are the odds he'll end up in jail?

1. Since the justice system has been shown to be completely fair

and that all are treated equally under the law, then, approximately zero.

2. Keeping my fingers crossed that he gets issued an orange jumpsuit.

Even if found guilty, though, he will appeal and appeal and appeal. The best scenario is that the appeals extend beyond the election to deny him martyr status, he loses the election and the appeals, and he goes to jail. For someone his age and mental condition, four years could see the end of him. He would most likely be well into dementia by then.

3. I don't know. But the defense hasn't even started yet.

This case is lasting forever. I thought with the jury picked so quickly that it’d be over quick. Wow. That was wrong.

7. The defense could have stipulated to a lot.

A lot of time was spent establishing things that are pretty clear and not likely to really be challenged.

They could have stipulated that stormy had an embarrassing story to tell. Probably not even relevant that they had sex, certainly not the details. But they didn't, forcing the prosecution to have her testify and make it more embarrassing than it needed to be.

All in the name of delay. And maybe, they're thinking the more courtroom action, the more opportunity for an appeal.

6. Hush money payment is word play the media uses.

It is about that crime yes but what he did was fucked a porn actress. That should be the take away on this. IMO. Trump is a dirty Pig man.

9. Felony charges

"Each of the 34 counts stem from a check, ledger entry or invoice from Trump's reimbursement of Cohen....While falsification of business records on its own is a misdemeanor, it is considered a felony punishable by up to four years in prison if it is done to conceal or further other crimes.In this case, Bragg said those other crimes include alleged election law violations and tax law violations...Cohen pleaded guilty in 2018

10. and all it takes is one juror saying, "not guilty"

and I know, that is our system to be proven innocent…..He’S NOT INNOCENT. 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬 🤬

12. Based on the defense doing a poor job and prosecutors continue to make the case

I believe he will be found guilty. It is a matter of whether they will put him in prison like they do for anyone else.
