He would need the Supreme Court to twist the law to let him go free. They could possibly be corrupt enough, but these Supreme Court judges will be on the bench long after Trump is dead.
I feel their future conservative causes will be worth more to them than Trump ever could be.
Conservatives and the Republican party’s goal since the 1930s has been to set up a fascist dictatorship. If they believe they can crystallize it around Trump. And then in a few years cast him aside. They will do it in a heartbeat. They care about how they can use and enable Trump for their use.
Yeah, they have no fealty to Trump and no incentive to thrust their reputation further into the trash by helping him. I would say 2% chance SCOTUS helps him, and that’s only because I try to avoid speaking in absolutes.
This has been my perception as well. I think overturning a conviction in the short term would have the highly probable rubber-band effect of limiting their power in the long term. Since many of them will likely be on the bench long after Trump is dead and gone, I see zero upside for them in risking this kind of action. If there is one thing history has taught me it is that no governmental body is coming to your rescue if doing so would correlate to a reduction in their own authority or power.
Ha, right back at you on the username. I just rolled the R on yours just like Gerardo did in his song. Not sure if that’s where you got it, but I’d like to think you’re aware of the song and artist I’m talking about :p
I am indeed, and that is precisely where it came from. I used to play that song over Ventrilo back in my CS 1.6 days to annoy my buddies, which then lead to it being my WoW character name, and now it has become my general anon-username.

Edit: Sweet username!
