when it becomes obvious he's going to jail. Check out the countries that don't have an extradition treaty with the US. Not a wonder selection.

I came of age during Watergate and hated Nixon. I wanted him out of office.

Since then, I’ve detested most Republicans’ and their views. Reagan was a criminal, both Bushes were threats to our nation. Many Republican legislators, (Gingrich, Boehner, Thune, Scalise etc.), have turned my stomach.

Yet it took Trump for me to want him DEAD! Nice job, Donnie

He’s so ugly and grotesque that I would love to never see him again. He is the epitome of phony. It really gets under my skin.

He has to schlep through life as DFT. Unfortunately, it affects the rest of us.

When people wonder whether he would be sentenced to prison or home confinement or whatever, I shudder to think about how cruel it would be to be forced to be Donald Trump for the rest of one's life.

34. Trump will not get a cell mate

I doubt he will even get into prison general population. He has far too many enemies. While the nazis in prison would love him, the Hispanics, blacks, and just plain crazies would love the prestige putting a knife thru his heart. He will get a solitary, high security cell. 6x9 feet of gray walls, a hard steel cot. Boring meals, and 1 hr a day of "exercise" in a wire cage. He will have nothing to do. No audience. Probably no visitors. I can't see anyone in his family paying him visits. Just year after year of nothingness. He will go quite mad. He's gonna reap just what he sowed.

He really is a self-deluded megalomaniac. He is, at best, barely capable of cognitive dissonance.

mainly due to his ability to fool those around him - the weak minded sycophants - that he is made of gold.

I guess those followers like the shine coming off him. Fools gold.

Because those who were closest to him are either in jail or heading to jail.

If I were Melania, I would be nowhere near that pig of a man. I pity Barron as he becomes an adult soon and has to live with the shame of having the last name of TRUMP.

Misspelled deliberately.

He will change his name.

Get some plastic surgery.

...so he thinks it's just another day. I doubt he will ever spend a day in jail. At worst he may lose some money, but he will find some other way to steal millions.

I may have to renege on my prediction of indictments tomorrow seeing as more people are being deposed at the grand jury, but indictments are coming soon. 😊

KNOWING you’re guilty and likely to be convicted is an IMMENSE amount of stress for an old fat never in shape hamberder eater. Please live through your massive stroke and be a cognizant vegetable for decades.

I ask why will no one hold him accountable. The fact that someone always allowed him to escape any serious consequences for a whole lifetime allowed him to become who he is.

he knows or will know before we do. though i like knowing that he's living in a constant hell of rage and terror all day every day, desperately and futilely trying to get his shrinking cult to make it all go away.

i was on twitter when he was president and would respond to his tweets just to ease my own stress, and often i would remind him that just because he always got away with it didn't mean he always would. he shoulda listened to me, but no, the criming was too deeply rooted and his warped mind had him convinced that he would in fact always get away with it.

he'll be sitting in a cell one of these days and still won't believe it's happening, or that it's possible, and will certainly never admit that he ever committed so much as a misdemeanor in his entire fucking life.
