He'll likely be playing tennis at minimum security Club Fed if it's federal, but Georgia doesn't seem to do special treatment. If he goes in on Georgia state charges, he could end up in a for real penitentiary.

I'd be shocked if he gets anything more than house arrest

Any sort of prison time would risk his neo Nazi army attempting monthly jailbreak attempts.

Which is not a reason to avoid locking him up.

His Neo Nazi army is a meal team 6 joke IRL, society should not fear them.

A Meal Team Six joke that took the Capitol.

and the capitol was basically left undefended. intentionally. and Flynn's brother kept it that way throughout.

I’ve seen high schoolers breaking into school with more aptitude and discipline than these fools.

Me and two of my classmates did this. Not a story I get to tell very often in any sorta context. We found the janitor's porn magazine stash and replaced the on hold music CD with a Black Sabbath one. Besides for that we didn't do anything.

Got to admit the women's staff bathroom was disappointing. I don't know what 15 year old me was expecting to see but it wasn't just a slightly cleaner bathroom.

that took the capitol after Trump disarmed the security, refused the reinforcement of both capitol police and denied deployment of the national guard.

stop acting like they stormed the pentagon under fire.

Good. Those morons routinely put themselves in prison trying to pull this shit off.

Look at the fucking state of him. I reckon a game of tennis would probably kill him!

Man hasn't done exercise since Stormy Daniels.

Suddenly, I've gained a lot of respect for Georgia.

Don't worry you will lose it. My bet

Some legislative 11th hour shenanigans removes the DA and the people who report to her. Until they find the one person who will drop all charges, in such a way that he can't go to trial again. And then when the case they were holding in reserve proceeds the new DA will sit on it. Night of long knives repeated.

I don't see him going to a state prison. If anything he'll have to serve time in federal. Being an ex president, the federal government will want to keep him under their watch.

Idc. If he's away for 30 years at club fed at least he's not destroying the country

Also, even a Club Fed prison would be a huge culture shock to him. Trump's used to doing whatever he wants whenever he wants. If he wants to go golfing, he does. If he wants to eat McDonald's for lunch and a burned steak with chocolate cake for dinner, he does. If he wants to fly somewhere, he goes. Sure, he might need to wait for mundane things like "filing a fight plan" or "food preparation," but he has people take care of it for him. To Trump it's just "I want X" followed by "Yes, sir. We'll get that to you ASAP."

The second Trump walks into a Club Fed, this freedom goes away. Yes, he'll have more freedom than if he went to a normal prison, but it's still vastly less freedom than he'd have in Mar-A-Lago. If he wants steak but the prison cafeteria is serving lasagna tonight, he can't have special food made for him because he's Donald Trump. If he wants to travel to his NJ golf course, he's not going to be allowed to.

Even a Club Fed prison would be a huge hit to Trump's ego since he won't be the Person in Charge anymore.

30? The guy has like 5 years at a push before that inevitable cardiac arrest catches up with him.

He's a big man, and he's out of shape.
