Dont think he ever gets arrested. He will hopefully be convicted though.

Trump already has been arrested, at least twice. Then arraigned and released. Just because it didn't happen in public with handcuffs doesn't mean he wasn't legally arrested.

True, but I’d love to see a perp walk; I know it won’t happen.

You just have to appreciate the apparent rope-a-dope with the Iran document. DoJ makes it seem like they don't have it, audio of Trump waving it around comes out, Trump's minions say Trump was lying about it just to impress random people, then DoJ reveals they did have it and it did come from Trump. Dunno if that was intentional, but it sure is entertaining.

But it increases the chances that the trial won't be until after the 2024 election.

Why does it move the date out?

I would bet a large portion of my savings that Trump doesn't even know how all of the chess pieces move.

No way, he's the greatest chess player of all time. He'll sink your Battleship in no time

I agree. He’d probably call the knight a horsey.

I bet Biden would try and eat one of the pieces on a chess board if his handlers didn’t stop him.

I'll take that bet! What do you want if you win? If I win you have to stop posting idiotic nonsense.

Doesn't for sure, but there's a new person so now that guy has to find representation, get arraigned, work out schedules with the other sets of lawyers, new security clearances, etc etc so seems like there's a good chance it'll push the date back.

The date was already probably going to be pushed back, the podcast with PopeHat said federal criminal cases like this commonly start after initial date set by the judge.

Biden has been a good civil servant for decades. Trump has been a low-level con man for decades. Only idiots follow Trump because Trump himself is an idiot. Trump was NEVER accepted by the New York social elite because they viewed him as a fool. It's one of the reasons why Trump hates the social elite circle of New York and Long Island. They never accepted him. It's why he went to Florida and Mara Lago and tried to buy his way into the inner circle and failed miserably. Trump is a loser but managers to hoodwink the stupid into believing he is something he is not. He's a con man, and you've been conned by a fool.

Trump is not going to jail. He’s going to become president then pardon himself for everything, and then he is not going to leave office without a fight.

Diagonally. One space. Unless they're jumping another piece.

He'd get bored after 3 moves, anyway. "What? What do you mean my horse can't move there? What a stupid game. Probably invented by Pelosi's grandpa. Can we get some taco bowls in here?"
