I have to admit to leaning more into Joe Morgue's downer camp where Drumpf is concerned.
Consider the Aileen Cannon situation. A judge with a demonstrated conflict of interest, what with The Turd having appointed her and she already illegally butting into the investigation to his benefit. Yet there she sits, where recusal is clearly warranted. This 'boxes' trial is ripe for mischief.
Then consider The Turd's status as ex POSOTUS, and his age, and that he's white, connected, nominally 'rich, and with a decades thick hide of Teflon.
And there's the worrying possibility that the GQP--maybe the scum itself--will snatch back the White House. I have little faith that the political pendulum will not make its dreadful swing some 18 months from now. The fickle third is as always but an October surprise away from destructive impulse. And third party foolishness is only to the benefit of the Party of Villains.
On balance, I think the worst he'll face is home confinement; hardly a devastating hardship for a slob probably not long for the world by the time the delays and appeals have run their course. Hell, the prick will probably be ten toes up already anyway. Other than the inconvenience and financial cost, the Orange Excrescence will very likely end up skating through his whole miserable existence without any meaningful consequence or impingement. The hundreds of thousands of excess COVID deaths alone cry out for more than this.
I'm bracing myself for the disappointing let-down which at this juncture seems more likely than not.
