And, you have to imagine there is a segment of society out there that, already angry, have seen what was done to J6ers, and figure if they're going to be jailed merely for peacefully protesting injustice, they might as well make it worth their while and take care of the offenders, threats of martial law, nukes, and F15s notwithstanding.
Not good all around, but I suspect especially for those identified as the offenders.
“But Neama Rahmani, a former federal prosecutor at West Coast Trial Lawyers, exclusively told Daily Express US that Trump being sent to jail would likely cause “mass protests and civil unrest.” “
This is a gross understatement.
He’d be in some city holding pen, not Riker’s Island.
And that’s just inside of Rikers!
Mass general strike. The truckers will be happy to get it going.
These folks are delusional. He isnt going to spend a single night in jail
I don’t think much would happen.
People are angry, but they would wait until after the election.
If Trump goes back in, the Judges in NY will have to answer for election interference and sedition. Yes, I think they should be aware that this is a real possibility. They should dot the I’s and cross the T’s, because the will be examined after the election.
Really, the justice system in NY makes 3rd world nations look advanced. Says a lot about NY.
No sh!t
Trump would also be the most popular guy on Riker’s island.
Trump is popular among the inmate population.
No it wouldn’t. Conservatives have been told to stand down time and time again. And we have no master astro-turf demonstration machine to fund and coordinate protests.
If they jail Trump they have crossed the Rubicon and there would be no turning back!
It was December the sixth 1983
I was doin’ time for armed robbery
At four in the morning, I was sitting in my cell
I heard a whistle blow, and I heard somebody yell
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Up in cell block number nine
Our warden said Come out with your hands up in the air
If you don’t stop this riot you’re all gonna get the chair
And Scarface Jones said It’s too late to quit
Pass the dynamite, don’t you give me any sh$t
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Up in cell block number nine
On the 47th hour the nerve gas got our men
We’re all back in our cells but every now and then
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
There’s a riot going on
Up in cellblock number nine
Up in cellblock number nine
Up in cellblock number nine
fun times!
Would need large cell to accommodate the Secret Service detail that is required to protect him.
Not to mention, it would be impossible to put him into the general population due to Secret Service protections. So they would have to clear the entire solitary confinement block to house him.
Not only in prison, but in solitary. That would be something. A former President campaigning to election thrown into solitary in a very nasty prison.
Where he would remain until his appeal would be heard, denied, and sent to SCOTUS. But, he would have “commuted suicide” long before he would be exonerated.
” there is a segment of society out there that, already angry, have seen what was done to J6ers”
Lots of righteous anger, still ... they are cooling their heels in prison. It’s ditto if PDJT is incarcerated. TPTB will do nothing, as they’ve done nothing for the J6 POWs.
Virtue signalling anger is a type of masturbation.
Putting Trump in jail would create a nightmare for the Judge, the court, the jail, the jail staff, the NYPD, and the city of New York.
The judge would need the entire NY National Guard to protect him it he tried to jail Trump...
