But I bet his mouthpieces are advising the shitbag to throw himself on the mercy of the court and plead guilty to all counts.

Poor old Trump, the ultimate "family man" broke the law to keep from hurting his wife's feelings....

(3,826 posts)One holdout can prevent a verdict. But the case can be retried.
I guess you might call that prevailing. I'm sure Trump would declare a hung jury to be total exoneration.
But that doesn't make it so.

(17,757 posts)until November; delay is his best friend. If he wins the election, all of his problem will disappear like yesterdays cigarette smoke and he will be untouchable for the rest of his life. We will all, the majority of his ignorant supporters included, will pay dearly.
If the jury is hung, how long will it take to retry? I don't know, maybe someone here has a good estimate. If a second trial is set, that adds at least another two months for the trial, not including the down time between the two. If hung a second time, I suspect that the prosecution would throw in the towel.

Im concerned he will not be immediately incarcerated pending appeal if convicted. Even if only briefly.

Its a long shot but I think hell testify.
