“So you’re admitting your liberal bias, Mr. Garland?”
Seems like Russell Brand learned a few things from Trump: four women have accused Brand of sexual assault.
Seriously, I would LOVE if in similar situations the person being interviewed kept repeating that first sentence, maintaining a bemused, calm expression over the escalating faux outrage re: his perfectly reasonable response.
“Yeah, sorry, I probably wasn’t clear, I’m only answering questions that have some relationship with reality.” Repeat ad infinitum.
From a Queerty article on MSN, quoting Rolling Stone:
As the criminal cases against him have piled up, the former president and 2024 GOP frontrunner has wondered aloud in recent months about what life would be like if he’s convicted, and if appeals fail. While Trump publicly professes confidence, privately, three sources familiar with his comments say, he’s been asking lawyers and other people close to him what a prison sentence would look like for a former American president.
Would he be sent to a “club fed” style prison — a place that’s relatively comfortable, as far these things go — or a “bad” prison? Would he serve out a sentence in a plush home confinement? Would government officials try to strip him of his lifetime Secret Service protections? What would they make him wear, if his enemies actually did ever get him in a cell — an unprecedented set of consequences for a former leader of the free world.
But perhaps the #1 question Trump has is: Will he have to wear “one of those jumpsuits” in prison?
::Rubs hands together and chuckles Muttley-style::
Well, he could wear the Emperor’s New Clothes, instead. Totally up to him.
How would we tell the difference from a wrinkly old orange jumpsuit? I can (unfortunately) imagine that he has bronzer applied all over, not just his face and hands.
The 4 major cases against Trump, but by no means all of themETA .
Federal 2020 election case (DC) 4 Felony Counts: (max sentences)
- Conspiracy to defraud US: 5 Yrs
- Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding: 20 Yrs
- Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding: 20 Yrs
- Conspiracy against rights: 10 Yrs
He won’t get close to max, but even 5-10 years would be good, especially at his age.
Georgia election indictment 13 felony counts.
Too many to list and sentences of 2.5 to 20 years per.
Federal documents case (Florida); 40 Felony Counts
Too many to list and sentences of 5 to 20 years per.
NY state case, hush money for Stormy Daniels. 34 felony counts.
- Falsifying business records: 4 yrs per count
The last is least important as not a deterrent to future attempts to overturn election results.
For clarity, those are charges against Trump?
Yes, I guess I should add that in.
Plus, let’s not forget Letitia James digging into the Trump Organization and their business practices. (Although there haven’t been any indictments yet on that front, correct?)
Not yet. However, it’s expected they may be coming.
just wait until he realizes: no hairspray for you in jail !!!
… and I can totally see him getting dragged out by prision wards - while treating air, just like the end of Kafkas “Der Prozess” … while a federal hairstylist with a diabolic smile sets his hairtrimmer to “extra short”.
like a dog … can be heard being muttered by somebody out of death row …

His being compelled to wear the orange jumpsuit will be fun. But what will be truly delicious is when he realizes that while he’s in stir he’ll be expected to push a broom or wipe cafeteria tables or sort laundry or something else he’ll regard as horrifyingly inhumane. That’ll be awesome.
Someone should tell him that he could go club fed accommodations only if he pleads guilty. Otherwise, it’s the Big House.
I want him washing toilets
Putin’s toilets.
It’s supposed to be a punishment.
The next ‘MAGA’ hat will be an orange jump suit, available at Trumps web sites ($55 plus shipping).
