If Trump is convinced by NY or GA, he can't pardon himself and will not be able to serve his term until released.

You don't have a clue what you are talking about. You are a lying POS!

I am not a lawyer or constitutional scholar, but I had a similar reaction to that post as you. I would imagine NY or GA would have to release a duly elected president on account of the supremacy clause. Now whether or not the prison term is paused or what happens after the four year presidential term is an interesting debate. And I wouldn’t be surprised if Democrats immediately draft impeachment articles and are able to convince enough senate Republicans to join them to get over the 2/3 hurdle for conviction to send Trump back to a state prison. So hopefully it doesn’t come to that. GA is imploding and the NY Alvin Bragg case is by far the weakest case of all of them so I don’t think it will come to that.

Personal attacks are uncalled for, unproductive, and belong on DU not FR.

With that said, I am trying to "game out" what could happen.

For whatever reason the global "Deep State" has become fixated on destroying the average "White Christian Nationalist" American for which Trump has become our proxy, to the point of destroying anything and everything that resists them by any and all means necessary.

To pretend that there is no real chance of Trump being incarcerated before this November does not align with what has happened since Trump's first term.
