Tits Regarding this: Sentencing delayed until after the election.

To no one's surprise, although I do understand his reasoning (and the DA's office agreed, FWIW).
Cheung took it with his usual grace and politeness, which is to say, none.
I've got some optimism to inject though. Trump's base wouldn't care whether he got sentenced before the election or not, but those voting against him now have (yet) another reason to do so: if he's elected, he's never being sentenced. You want any consequence at all for DJT out of this (even if the punishment is tinier than his crotch shroom), you vote him the fuck out. Drives up turnout, potentially...

It’s also giving Trump special treatment and undermining their legal system further.

It’s also giving Trump special treatment and undermining their legal system further. At this point, the "special treatment" would be if he actually got sentenced early and "trust" and "legal system" stopped being used together in the same sentence a long time ago (at least if "don't" isn't also included). Sentencing him early wouldn't help the legal system, anything positive re: that that could come out of this case already happened when he was convicted in the first place. What it would do would be to infuriate his base even further by making him even more of a martyr... And even if it didn't win him any more votes, it could easily impact the election by driving up voter intimidation in retaliation. It's a very difficult decision to weigh and I would obviously want to see the Tangerine Latrine face the music sooner rather than later, but I believe it's correct in this specific context.

Sentencing him ‘early’?

On another note, suppose he did get sentenced now. You really think he'd actually serve that sentence, even something as innocuous as house arrest, while he's running for President? His team would challenge that to hell and back anyway and it's almost a certainty that nothing would happen until after the election after all... And if he's elected? Into the dustbin it all goes.

Good catch, that should have been something like "at the originally appointed time". Leaving my mistake up for posterity.

He loses the election and then gets banged up is hopefully how things go, he needs to lose massively this time around and him being locked up may have helped him with the twats who may vote for him.
No it doesn't make any sense but how that cunt is still in with a chance of being president for a second time doesn't make any sense either.

Honestly what it all boils down to is that he and his cronies should have been prosecuted years ago (basically as soon as he was out of the White House his ass should have been on fire from more than just his diet), but Garland sat on his hands and no other, non-federal cases were pursued for some reason. So now you've got the equivalent of a student starting a month-long project the night before the deadline, with the teacher council (SCROTUS) ready to throw it out over a typo.
And I lean QAnon Aileen Cannon. Screw Aileen Cannon.

I assumed Dougs was talking about Liz! Liz did it a couple days ago IIRC The Cheneys endorsing a Democrat (and Harris at that) and a Kennedy endorsing Trump... We really did tumble into Bizarro-World sometime around the Harambe incident, didn't we...

Can't show the cult leader in a poor light. Trump has always been a piece of shit but his mental decline has made his cuntishness even worse.

This from the man who almost got shot btw
Hard to believe it's only been about two months since that! It was barely talked about after a couple days, too... Then again, when the Republicunts have cultivated an apathetic, "let it go and move on" approach to shootings, I guess they can't be too angry when no one gives a shit about Dear Leader being the victim of one

It had one good effect at least, all the talk about it now being a slam dunk for Trump against Biden for the presidency may have forced his hand in standing down.

hopefully all this will drive trump over the edge and with the way the world is going money on, trying to escape from the FBI in car chase - extra points if its white bronco (not sure his little hands can turn the steering wheel very well)

So despite admitting (or maybe slipping up?) he lost the last election he's now saying he'll win if they can stop the cheating this time.

I kinda thought he meant them getting shot. I believe he's talking about kids becoming transgender with surgery at school which many brain-dead believe. Just like the women are killing babies as soon as they're born as part of abortion story he peddles.

Yeah they're going to school and having enforced transitions, he's fucking barking. Musk has not been a part of an earlier Trump administration but is apparently really keen on it.
Put them both in the same room and brick up the doors and windows.
