    For the love of fuck, please throw him in jail when he inevitably can’t keep his big mouth shut, this time. The world needs a break from his incessant emotional vomit.

        His mugshot tells a different story. That aside, he is probably going to use his influence and money to buy himself a luxury cell.

      Would be nice, but I’m not convinced that putting him in jail doesn’t hand him the presidency.

        I don’t think it would. Because one of his best weapons is his ability to constantly run his mouth (virtually or otherwise), and in jail, he’s not afforded that luxury by virtue of being a presidential candidate. And I’m talking about jail, not prison.

        But even with prison, he wouldn’t be able to stay relevant as well as he does currently. He would be forced into regular silence, and a candidate that doesn’t stay relevant in the public zeitgeist is doomed to lose.

    Meanwhile Judge Aileen Cannon reprimanded Jack Smith in the “national secrets stored in a bathroom and obstruction” case for filing a document 23 words over the limit. Trump gets away with threatening judges, court staff, and witnesses with a slap on wrist.

      What is the precedent for keeling national secrets in a bathroom? Anywhere in the world is fine.
