Reg, I really admire your tenacity responding to tRump's cult, but it is a cult. No rational argument will pierce the veil - the cult will last until the leader dies or is taken out of the discussion.
Now, onto the verdict.
I'm surprised he was convicted on all counts - I was expecting at least a few would be NG on technical or reasonable doubt issues. All 34 in two days - wow. And of course he will appeal - fine, let him waste more time and money that his followers donate - no skin... Sentencing is the issue now. Max is 4 years/$5000.00 each felony - 136 years (concurrently) and $170,000.00. We can only hope. Either way he will petition to have the sentence delayed during appeal. But I still think he will get some kind of probation and a hefty fine.
So, on to the next trial. I'd like to see Jack Smith tell Judge Cannon "You can just sit and spin there dearie, we'll get back to you after we finish in Washington." Then concentrate on the J6 charges/trial while Cannon plays with her gavel. We might get that trial in late Aug. early Sep.
