Then he goes to court where he'll be either found guilty or not, unless they drop the charges unlikely, so if found guilty that means prison which I'd say would mean the walls would be pretty well closed.
I suppose you'd say "Oh but he could still get elected and pardon himself," and I mean sure though that's assuming he still the candidate and the cases trying to prevent him from being on the ballot for January 6th/ trying to overturn the election don't succeed. Assuming all that he'd still have to win which honestly seems like a long shot as a convicted felon, don't see independents liking that.
Though if he did somehow pull that off there would be some irony in that he'd absolutely belong in prison for trying to overturn the 2020 election and the stuff in Georgia, which I don't know if he can pardon himself for a state crime....🤔, because all his claims about the 2020 election would be clear bull####. If he could get elected while in prison with Biden as the current President and Democrats in control of the Senate and Republicans barely "controling" the House then how exactly is there some elaborate government conspiracy rigging the votes against him?
