Now the Jury has all the information they need to decide on the 34 counts against Trump... He'll be found guilty on a handful of those charges without Cohen's testimony. I'm more interested if his felony convictions will require a short stay in prison, a lengthy stay in prison, or just house arrest in combo. For anyone else in a similar situation, their political career is over and they essentially retire, write a few books, or do a short stint as a political analyst. In addition, I'm interested in how the Secret Service will navigate the New York Correctional Facility when Trump becomes a convicted felon. There have been a few stories, lately on Bloomberg News that the Secret Service has been in contact with New York Correctional Facility. Most likely, he'll begin preparing for the RNC nomination and preparing for the remaining three criminal trials with a new set of lawyers while degrading his lawyers from the Hush Money Criminal Trial. The Nine Justices on the Supreme Court will then have a say on who will be the next President of the United States because of the "immunity issue"...not the voters but we'll most likely see a transfer of Presidential powers to the Vice President early in the presidential term if Trump wins the 2024 U.S. Presidential Elections. Total chaos like never seen before but Democracy will have been saved. Regardless of the outcome, Trump could easily transition to a full-time gig on Truth Social Network and back to running the Trump Organization. After the dust settles with chaos in America, Melanie will divorce him and walk away with a nice settlement. Trump will eventually become remarried or father another kid. wrbtrader
