Yes, I do disagree with anyone that believes he will go to prison pbmus Jul 2020 #5

Tend to agree. Even if prosecuted, it'll end with a few trumpers hanging jury. Hoyt Jul 2020 #6

I hope NY can also prosecute Rudy. They must have something on him from the State by now. Budi Jul 2020 #2

For anything to do with taxes....he has multiple escape routes...ie..tax accountants,Tax lawyers, I didn’t sign that, etc.,etc...

The only reason Capone was sent up was because of all his other crimes he committed...

Name a billionaire that has gone to prison for anything to do with taxes...and the only reason Wesley was sent up was because he is black...

He probably has negative net worth

Once out of power, he will have no chips left to play and no money either if his assets are frozen.

Rudy & Trump should be forced to be cellmates for the next 60 + years.

I have a feeling that his luck is about to run out and he can't be pardoned for state crimes, of which there are many, I am sure.
