It's got the intensity of a Big Brother eviction.
Maybe a 8/15 odds one :think:
it's unlikely to be a hung jury, with such a quick verdict .... it will be either guilty or not guilty
they have to fill out guilty or not guilty for each of the 34 charges :laugh:
It doesn't natter what the verdict is. He's not guilty.
But it's highly likely that he will be found guilty.
They won't put him in prison (yet) it's just going to be used for the media and Democrats to run their campaign off. They have nothing else.
the evidence really pointed to Trump's guilt, so i guess you didn't actually listen to any of it Alf

I agree with that. Not impossible, but not really likely, even if as already pointed out, Cohen did 3 months for the other part of the crime

BBC said this morning that Trump is unlikely to face any prison. Legal analyst and personal injury attorney Miguel Custodio says Alec faces the same sentence as Hannah if found guilty. Prosecutors will frame their case around Baldwins role as a producer actually involves him in all aspects of the production. Knowing that Gutierrez-Reed was relatively inexperienced and overwhelmed decided to not bring anyone else in, or to make any other personnel changes. He pressed the crew to work quickly.

It was done to hide her from the electorate which is federal election interference, and that does carry a custodial sentence. The lawyer that helped him commit the crime served 3 months in prison for the same offence.

The other side of that coin, is that Trumps mouth, with the gloves off and nothing to lose in a prison, would be potentially dangerous for the leaking of further classified information. He'd have to almost be in solitary confinement, and even as much as I don't like Trump, that's not how humans have evolved to live and would actually be cruel. Although it is often used as a way to protect prisoners, so I suppose the argument could be that it was being done to protect the secrets of the US.
my opinion is that everyone in america is well aware of what type of person Trump is. If they go ahead and choose him as president, then they knew exactly what they were doing. The situation is nothing like it was in 2016 when he was a controversial celebrity

The other side of that coin, is that Trumps mouth, with the gloves off and nothing to lose in a prison, would be potentially dangerous for the leaking of further classified information. He'd have to almost be in solitary confinement, and even as much as I don't like Trump, that's not how humans have evolved to live and would actually be cruel. Although it is often used as a way to protect prisoners, so I suppose the argument could be that it was being done to protect the secrets of the US.
In theory, they could have a special little unit full of people with classified information and state secrets, and they can all spill them to each other but none of them ever get to speak to anyone outside the unit again. :omgno: imagine being a fly on the wall in there...

The more realistic solution IMO if he did get a custodial sentence (that was likely to be life-long) would be just to let him do it in the comfort of one of his many homes, probs one with a little golf course, and tell him that he can chill out, watch telly and play golf with his mouth shut or go to prison.
He'll probably try to spill some secrets on his death bed anyway but TBH he's an unreliable witness so :shrug:. The people who want to believe him will believe him, everyone else will take anything he has to say with a pinch of salt. Even if there's evidence either way. The world is great that way.
Never give people too much credit.

Honestly though if anything his cult of personality has grown significantly since 2016 - though possibly more in intensity than scope. I'd imagine some of the more moderate Republicans who voted for him in 2016 would struggle to vote for him again now. But you never know. As I said... 6/5 is tempting enough to bet on a win.

i can't remember the odds i got in 2016, i do know i ended up with a couple of hundred quid for a tiny stake :laugh:
The way these things play out is complicated. They reckon that 23% of the public wont vote for trump now he is convicted. Granted some of them just wont vote at all and some may vote for biden, but that is country wide, in the swing states it may be completely different. Also, not every swing state is the same. They all have individual peculiarities
I'm going to call it now. No matter who wins the election, the other side is going to contest the result. The time of the dems saying let democracy take it's course will be over, because they will have lost democracy with a trump win. I foresee a violent end to it all. It's just heading straight down that path

I'd agree but you have to balance that against Biden being... if you look at it objectively... somewhere between a joke and terrifying. There's just at this point no denying that he ain't playing with a full deck any more. I don't think he's "senile" but his faculties are massively reduced... people weren't fully aware of that in 2020. He's far too old to do the job. The whole situation is a mess.

People will hold their noses at his senility, but I think Gaza is much the bigger issue. His path to victory is always through the young, and PoC. He's screwed the pooch with both of them.
The dems just don't know what to do against Trump. If they take the high ground, they effectively disengage from the argument. Trump can come out with something new and obscene every day, and the dems will scream with outrage and the public say oh there goes trump again being trump. The public largely don't care. The dems are now saying trump said the n word 25 years ago .... i mean, wtf .... do they honestly think chasing that down will win them an election?
I saw Biden at some campaign event yesterday, and he looked old. He doesn't plaster on the make up and dye his hair ..... and he looks the age that he is 80+.
Trump goes on stage, fluffs his words, talks crap, but he has sun tan make up and dyed hair. Perception is everything
The dems should have won this election without trying, but it should have been with a different candidate. Simple

Trump has definitely started to decline in his public appearances too - but he's where Biden was 4 years ago (unsurprisingly, as he is coincidentally 4 years younger). Biden always had his fluff-ups but they're noticeably increasing. There was "plausible deniability" in 2020 that a lot of it was just his speech impediment etc. but not so much at this point, he gets cleary and obviously confused.

The alternative is not to vote at all. Trump has come out and said he'll crush the campus protesters on his first day in office, but I think Bidens optics over trumps bluster is always more shocking and is reality.
I have no worries that trump will be able to get more voters than he got last time, but US elections are weird. Hilary lost her election by a total of 25k votes across 3 or 4 states. it doesn't take a lot to happen for those margins to be in play again. That's without understanding that MAGA have been trying to get themselves in influential positions when it comes to election supervision, and signing them off.
I could be completely wrong, but I just don't see Biden winning at this point in time.

A lot of the reason Hillary didn't win, was because people simply didn't like her, and she was way ahead in the polls, so people just didn't bother voting. As you say, it doesn't take much change at swing states to actually win the election. Let's also not forget the election interference :laugh:
So, this time round, i actually think its a good thing that the polls are close, because it forces people out to vote, and bidens vote pool should be much larger than trumps, meaning he should win .... but will i put a bet on it? If i'm betting any way, it will be for a Biden win

Quick point about vote pools and US elections. They always come down to a few votes in a few states. The fact Biden had 8 million more voters last time is an irrelevance. It's about voting pools in very specific counties and cities and there just isn't a lot of room to play with.
I'm not sure what the demographics are in those states, and I can't be arsed to look, so it may mean that Biden losing young and PoC coastal or city voters won't have any impact at all on the races that matter, or it could just completely wipe his chances off the (electoral) map.

I think congress and senate races are going to annihilate the republicans, they’ve already lost the majority of the special races over the past year, they massively underperformed at the midterms and they’re the races the democrat fundraisers/campaigners are focusing on, if Biden were to lose the presidency, which I don’t think he will, I think the dems will still easily win both the senate and congress

Strangest kind of non-exclusive agreement I've ever heard of. A lot like the Michael Jackson accusers who took money for their silence, then published.
Yes MJ (allegedly allegedly) paid off quite a few accusers under-the-table in a similar way and some of those are probably the ones who still came forward. The most famous examples (from the Netflix doc) hadn't been paid anything. And I don't think the ones who are known to have received official out of court settlements after a case was raised have said anything - at least not before his death.
As far as I understand it for non-court "hush money" there's likely to be a personal contract involved, but it's not automatically enforceable like an actual court settlement would be? So if a contract does exist, then Trump could sue her for the money, but it would involve a new civil court action (and the contract standing up to scrutiny).
Trump MIGHT be petty enough to go through with that, but the caveat is (and why in MJ's case neither him nor his estate would ever pursue it), in order to raise a court action to enforce the terms of a personal settlement contract, you have to go on record admitting that the contract exists in the first place, which (in the eyes of the public) is always going to be tantamount to an admission of guilt. Makes the whole cherade pointless.
