Do you think we will ever see Trump in jail? Any other Trump?

Think about what an incredible amount of will it will take to put a former president behind bars. He'll be screaming "banana Republic" at the top of his lungs. Exhaustion will take over.

No. Trump will fight so long he'll be dead before he sees the inside of a jail cell.

Ivanka and Jared will get locked up but not Daddy. Grifters as they are.

Don Jr should be behind bars as he's such a jerk but he'll escape.

No one goes to jail because we all worry they might become martyrs.

His kids could get in trouble, but likely not for anything remotely political.

Get him out of office as a failure, watch his fake businesses crumble, and the like, are good enough for me right now.

tax evasion plus lying to the bank are pretty serious

basically what Manafort went to jail for.

(I'm still not clear what crime people think Trump committed that comes with jail time)

Isn't he already an unindicted co-conspirator in the hush money case that landed Michael Cohen in jail? Violations of federal election law are punishable with jail time. Ask Michael Cohen.
