Story by David Edwards • 3h •

Republican National Committee lawyer Christina Bobb, a former conservative news anchor and attorney for Donald Trump, said she expected to spend the rest of her life in prison if she is found guilty of trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Arizona.

During a Monday interview on Real America's Voice, host Steve Bannon asked Bobb what her punishment could be if she is found guilty on nine counts of trying to organize fake electors to hand the election to Trump.


"The nine felonies are how many years in prison?" Bannon wondered.

"I don't know how many for those nine felonies. Yeah, several decades or 50 years in prison," Bobb replied. "Yeah, I assume it would be the rest of my life in prison."


.................


...................Bobb was among 18 people charged in the Arizona fake elector scheme. Trump confidantes Rudy Giuliani and Boris Epshteyn were also charged.

Bobb noted that she had served in the Marine Corps.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

1. Well, there's that old saying, Christina...

"If you can't do the time, don't do the crime."

[AverageOldGuy]

23. It's deeper that that . . .

[Deuxcents]

2. As a Marine, she took an oath to this country and her actions betrayed that oath.

50 years in prison would be fine with me.

[Leith]

3. She should have thought about that

before she actively participated in a coup against a duly elected government official.

Too late to whine and squirm her way out of it.

[eShirl]

4. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time...

[ZonkerHarris]

5. Don't threaten me with justice and accountability

[twodogsbarking]

6. For good behavior they should give her a reduction of 20 minutes.

[James48]

7. I'm ok with that.

Fifty years sounds about right for an accomplice.

Of course, for the main guys, I’d want to see double that.

[BumRushDaShow]

8. She lucked out for not ALSO being charged in GA (at least yet)

She needs to start working on some plea deals like her compatriots Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell.

[Fiendish Thingy]

9. Her sentences would be served concurrently, not consecutively

And as a lawyer, she should know this.

My guess is the max sentence is 20 years, and the reality is she would maybe serve 8, 10 years tops.

[NonPC]

27. She's a Trump Lawyer

Doesn't know better.

[Kid Berwyn]

10. Lucky they aren't facing a gallows.

Which is what traitors deserve.

[Wednesdays]

18. In another era, they definitely would have.

In many, many other countries, they wouldn't even get a trial before skipping right to the execution.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

45. Dress her in a puppy suit and tell Kristi Noem that she's untrainable.

[mwb970]

11. Poor, poor baby.

[Botany]

12. Oh well. I hear the dinner menu @ "club fed" is awesome.

And don’t know if she can flip on Donny being his lawyer and everything.

[irisblue]

13. Flip yt woman flip

[50 Shades Of Blue]

14. Where are they!? Oh there they are -

15. #FAFO, Christina

Fuck Around and Find Out

[rubbersole]

16. Orange seems to be your new favorite color.

Wear it well, Christina, wear it well.

[relayerbob]

17. A Marine and an attorney

Committing treason. She absolutely knew better, she can’t argue ignorance. I have zero sympathy. My only question is why Bannon isn’t in prison.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

44. He'd have to be shaved, fumigated and bathed first.

As for Bobb, her trying to pull the veteran’s card for sympathy makes her crimes more outrageous and egregious. She knew better.

[C Moon]

19. Yeah right...a white republican doing time in prison?

[Grokenstein]

20. Everyone's heard the phrase, but do they know the source?

[Marcuse]

32. He should have listened to his theme song (allegedly).

[2naSalit]

21. Yeah, that works for me...

I'd be getting the same if I were fucking stupid enough to pull the shit she did.

[EarthFirst]

22. Time for some of that good ole Republican "personal responsibility"

[AverageOldGuy]

24. Everything, everyone . .

Everything Trump touches dies.

Everyone Trump touches ends up hanging out there all by hm/herself.

They'll never learn.

[Turbineguy]

25. But look at the bright side lady,

You did it for trump.

[Chainfire]

26. There is a time honored statement that covers this: Tough shit Sherlock.

[Silent Type]

28. Chesebro -- the architect of the whole scam -- got a $5,000 fine and probation. Wouldn't worry

too much if she cooperates. But, maybe Arizona will be different.

[AllyCat]

29. Awww, poor baby.

Just feel so, so bad for her….

Actually, I don’t. Karma’s a beyatch, eh?

[marble falls]

30. If only she gets that sentence.

[live love laugh]

31. Jeers for tears for fears.

[Walleye]

33. Meanwhile, we Americans are condemned to spending the rest of our lives trying to get rid of Trump

[Evolve Dammit]

34. Cry in prison. Stupid ass.

[Ray Bruns]

35. Here's some advice.

https://m.

[Irish_Dem]

36. She'll just get a slap on the wrist like the rest of them.

She is just playing the victim.

[usonian]

37. Kick

These morans can't think anything through more than 15 seconds ahead.

[EndlessWire]

38. This is the lawyer

that signed the affidavit for the classified docs that said they had all been returned, when in reality there were hundreds of retained and hidden docs. She's knee deep in it all on her own. Just another lawyer who gave up her life for the likes of Trump.

Well, Dear, ignorance is no excuse. Plus, it kinda looks like you were trying to overturn my country's government. So, stick it (time to turn prosecution witness, if you can't think of that on your own.)

[The Roux Comes First]

39. Jeez - Have All of These Brain-dead Followers Attended Some Sort of Heritage or Federalist Society School of Whining?

It is truly pathetic to realize that they have little more than "pitiful me" to their name! Maybe we should consider some tutoring and/or scholarship program to get them into something more constructive - like, say, a good master's program in rock-paper-scissors.

[Old Crank]

40. Wasn't treason

A capital offense and a firing squad? She gets off lightly. The current GOP wants to turn back the clock. But not for them.

[Botany]

41. Well they can't put her into prison because she is now in charge of "election integrity" for the RNC

42. So far the consequences of these trumper's actions haven't amounted to squat

Everything's always on appeal. Waiting for the next court filing. On and on until after the November election. The judiciary is using Dean Smith's old delay tactics. Run the clock out.

43. Folks, there' a question that keeps rising up in my consciousness............

"How the hell could these people do what they did and not realize they were betraying the ideals the nation's historic heroes fought and died for?"

Then an answer of sorts echoes in reply. Until the twentieth century, the US was a pretty much isolationist little backwater on the global stage. The two "so called" world wars found us, thankfully, an ocean away from the disruption of actual ground combat. Our whole "war" experience gave us a false sense of immunity from the bone deep horror and dread of mindless shells and bombs falling onto our homes and pastures as foreign troops maraud our neighborhoods. But we had "won" because our belief system and our society were "more just" than the others. This brings us to the epic myth of American exceptionalism, meaning, we can do literally anything to and on Earth.

After long decades of subsequent international "righteous" bullying, the infotainment media calling even the most shameful actors, "heroes", the national fashionable predilection became one of confidence and invincibility. This illusion was most consistently upheld as the only reasonable explanation by the neo-conservative party as it took over the Republicans. The marginally civilized among us, importantly including professional military personnel, have taken this blatant misinterpretation of contemporary events as a license to do whatever the hell they "feel is best".

Bottom line, they don't teach civics like they should anymore and "only minority people do actual, punishable crimes*".

* Whereas I believe disregarding low info civics is a major Department of Education misstep, the latter part of the sentence is purely because way too many stupid bastards believe racial prejudice is fact based and I like putting them down whenever I get the chance.

46. She'll get a fine equivalent to a parking ticket. Justice is dead.
