Chris Hayes pointed out something that has not really been digested.

[LiberalFighter]

Those convicted in the Georgia case will serve their time in Georgia. That might be a lump in the throat for some of them.

[madaboutharry]

1. And in a state prison...

they are notorious and awful.

[dsc]

2. I am not sure that is true

Georgia could let Trump serve his federal sentence first.

[edhopper]

3. Let's hope

There is a federal sentence

[William769]

13. They would probably run concurrent.

[summer_in_TX]

14. Another Georgia DA interviewed on MSNBC said the initial five years of

the mandatory sentence if found guilty can be served under house arrest, probation, in prison, or split between those. Other views had suggested it must be in prison.

[prodigitalson]

4. that and the five year minimum should be focusing some minds

[brush]

5. Yep, state prisons are actual prisons, unlike the club feds,...

the much more inmate-friendly federal facilities these white collared and long-pampered individuals would prefer.

And yes, there maybe intimidating "bubbas" in close proximity.

[Elessar Zappa]

9. Oh there's some horrible federal prisons.

Their minimum security prisons are relatively nice but the medium and max security federal prisons are no joke. Maybe a smidge better than state prison but not by much.

[brush]

17. So true. I was referring to the minimum security federal prison camps that some white collar...

and mostly white, inmates get sentence to. That's why I called them club fed (as in Club Med) in my previous post.

[Hortensis]

18. Prisons don't have to be barbaric and cruel to be "actual." They're all prisons,

as I'm sure every one of us would feel to our bones minute one.

[brush]

19. I wasn't clear. I was referring to minimun security federal prison camps v actual max security...

federal prisons, which of course are no joke at all.

[Hortensis]

21. :) Right. There SHOULD of course be one civilized and civilizing quality

of incarceration for all.

[padfun]

6. If he ever gets pardoned from the Fed crimes then

he would gdo back to Georgia to do state time.

He might not want out of the fed prison.

[LiberalFighter]

7. That is a quandry.

[kentuck]

8. I knew an old man that had done time in an Atlanta Penitentiary.

When I was a young boy. I recall this old man that had been sent to prison in Atlanta for moonshining illegal whiskey. He said the warden would let him out of prison to go out in the woods and make some moonshine for the warden. He perfected his art in the penitentiary.

[relayerbob]

10. Believe you me, we here in Georgia

are well aware of it, and looking forward to it. GA State Pen ain't a pretty place

[KentuckyWoman]

11. There is no chance he goes to jail.

It is not going to happen. It should bit it won't. And yes I hope I am the wrongest wrong that was ever wrong in the entire history of wrong.

[Gore1FL]

12. I hope there is room in Andersonville. nt

[FlyingPiggy]

15. I don't care where he serves time. He just needs to serve time.

I am SO RELIEVED that the state of GA has indicted this crooked bastard. No one can pardon his ass now. Fock you Donnie Douchebag. Lock him up and throw the key away.

[GoodRaisin]

16. Trump will serve his time at home.

Guliani might not be so lucky.

[Celerity]

22. Gitmo his orange arse

[Elessar Zappa]

23. As long as they ban him from the internet and tv, I'll accept that.

[Azathoth]

20. There is going to be a very serious push to put him in prison

For multiple reasons: the sheer number of crimes he's been charged with across multiple jurisdictions; the fact prosecutors would not have charged him without overwhelming evidence of guilt; the fact prosecutors are taking a massive professional and personal risk by doing their jobs and thus opening themselves up to the wrath of Trump's cult, both inside and outside of government, so they will want to see a meaningful outcome from their personal sacrifice; and the fact that Trump himself admits nothing short of a jail cell is going to stop him from continuing to foment insurrection and attacking the foundations of our democracy.

The folks who predict probation or house arrest are done deals aren't reading the tea leaves correctly.
