Not sure why you didn’t just link to the source article

haaretz.com/…/0000018f-c0d3-dade-adef-ecfb884f000…

Edit: oh nvm this article doesn’t load, ugh.

I feel like somehow this is just going to drive more campaign contributions and win over those who are brainwashed, netting him a boost in the polls, but I guess time will tell.

If you want to inflict damage on yourself you can check the meltdown on patriots dot win. It’s funny and sad all at once.

I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed

I was not expecting that. Trump continues to shock.

There is no chance for him to go to jail. Such sentencing will be appealed to Supreme Court and you know what will happen next.

He’s unlikely to go to gaol for this particular set of crimes even without getting special treatment. He’d be looking at a maximum of 4 years (per count, but I suspect those would probably be served concurrently), but as another article about the subject said:

But Trump is unlikely to be sentenced to prison, experts say. He is a first-time offender, and the crime he has been found guilty of is a non-violent paper crime.

He is a first-time offender, and the crime he has been found guilty of is a non-violent paper crime.

Right, first time non-violent felon, like Michael Cohen.

Or his CFO, who is currently serving his 2nd sentence in Rikers to protect “the boss”.

Is it true that he can still run for the office even if he’s in jail?

Eugene V. Debs ran for president in 1920 while he was serving time for “sedition”(he had been making anti-war and anti-draft speeches during World War I). It’s certainly possible, though incredibly doubtful he’d win. I find that I can’t really count anything out when it comes to Trump, though.

Templa OP ,

Happy cake day!!

Also thank you for the reply

The biggest threat to Trump if he does go to jail is he will lose airtime and will be up to his merry band of lickspittles to try to drum up interest, and interesting they are not.

teawrecks ,

He can spend the time (ghost) writing his book about how unfair the fake news media is toward him. He could literally title it “My Struggle” and his base still wouldn’t get it.

tristan ,

If you ever dive into the filth that is r/conservative, you’ll see that this has just reenforced their views that he needs to win and they need to do anything to make that happen…I don’t think there’s anything that could snap that cult out of it at this point

The presumption is normally the people wouldn’t vote for a criminal let alone one that’s in jail.

Who would have thought this would be a hell of a presumption in this day and age

sp3tr4l ,

I think it was ABC that just showed a poll saying 15% of independents would be more likely to vote for Trump if he’s a convicted felon, 8% less likely, and 74% indifferent.

So uh, at least amongst independent voters, no, apparently being a felon does not matter that much.

ninjaphysics , in Israeli journalist says he was threatened by senior intelligence officials if he reported on attempts by the country's spy chief to intimidate ex-prosecutor

Is that all these “officials” know how to do? I only ever hear them lying, spinning, redacting, harassing, bullying, shaming, and spewing hate filled messages at people they deem “lesser,” which seems to be a lot of people. (Not to mention the ongoing genocide they’re leading…)

Surprised that a country that started as a settler colonial project continues to act as a settler colonial project?

Hopefully Hungary will stay strong and continue to support Ukrainians, even if it is alone in doing so <3

autotldr Bot , in Lawsuit against American Airlines claims Black passengers were asked to deboard flight

🤖 I’m a bot that provides automatic summaries for articles:

Click here to see the summaryHowever, before takeoff, the lawsuit alleges that an American representative approached them individually and asked them to leave the plane without explanation. After the men were removed from the plane, they were allegedly told by an American representative that they would not be allowed to fly on the flight and would have to rebook their trip. Upon asking for an explanation, the men were told that they were removed because a white male flight attendant had complained about an unidentified passenger’s body, according to the lawsuit. While complaining at the gate, the pilot announced to the rest of the passengers on the plane that the men had been removed because of a reported body odor complaint. In a response to the Guardian, American said, “We take all claims of discrimination very seriously and want our customers to have a positive experience when they choose to fly with us. Our teams are currently investigating the matter, as the claims do not reflect our core values or our purpose of caring for people.” — Saved 65% of original text.

Truck_kun , in Chinese military releases bold video simulation of Taiwan invasion

Was hoping to see the video in the article, but just screen caps.

Was under the impression that Taiwan would likely use thousands of Ukraine style drone boats to sink the Chinese fleet.

Instead all I see is screenshots of missiles the size of cities raining down. I assume it’s a perspective issue, but those missiles are unrealistically large.

0x815 OP ,

That’s strange. I can see the video at the top of the page, just before the text begins.

Truck_kun ,

You’re right, my ad blocker was making it look like an image. My bad. Basically a video of missiles being launched from land, air, and sea in mass.

Do they get to keep the pay tho? Might be worth it to spend a few years in the slammer if you made a few million euros from the Russians.

adespoton , in Offshore Real Estate Wealth Stats

I thought you couldn’t have foreign ownership in Dubai?

Or is this foreign ownership in a particular location, like the US?

data_graffiti OP ,
