Yup, they're talking about it now again. 34.8M dollars in the 6 hours post verdict from 6pm to 12am.

Profit

Trump has got to be absolutely loving it. Years ago he probably couldn't imagine there would be that many stupid people in America that would just give him money after being brainwashed by him. Think about it.......there are actually people on this planet that believe what Donald Trump says. It's insane.

I'd bet against him actually profiting though. I can't imagine the donations are keeping up with the legal fees and judgements any more.

Bided raised $51 M . . . in April.

Fair enough, but you get what I'm trying to say. Even after a trial by jury where every single juror found him guilty he's still saying things are rigged and supporters send him money. Pure craziness.

Oh yeah, for sure. It's just the part about profiting and loving it I'm not sure about. He seems to be in a mess financially and can't imagine he's all that happy with his life these days, but who knows with him.

Guy on Twitter is claiming he’s cleaned out his savings and maxed his credit cards to contribute to the cause.

Awesome idea. Borrow at 27% interest to pay a billionaire’s legal bills. ###### retirement, am I right!

If he did it, which he probably didn’t.

Oh he probably did, never underestimate the stupidity of his fan base.

They can say anything, does not make it real.

I am not saying that Trump is an environmentalist or gives a crap about climate.

lol, whose turn to fish captain out of the right wing rabbit hole he tripped into again?

I realize that he is unlikely to see a jail cell from this conviction, but technically, jail time is one of the sentences that could in theory be handed out.

I am curious, if an ex-president goes to jail, do they still get secret service security while they are there?

[Reggie Dunlop]

Yes, he will still have a secret service detail.

Yes they do, apparently Secret Service was at Riker's island to discuss the logistics.

Oh I don’t. I think it’s just too easy to brag about contributing money. You’re anonymous and no proof is required. He’s probably lying.

Makes you wonder why they don’t just go after Trump’s defence team who had a hand in selecting the jurors. What a seriously deluded bunch.

cause they've bought the BS argument that they couldn't get a fair jury in New York anyway. They'll happily bend themselves into pretzels if that's what they need to do.

I've seen MAGA zombies claim in the same interview that Trump is actually still in charge, but Biden is to blame for everything that goes wrong. You're wasting your time if you look for a shred of logic with these folks.

You knew this was coming. Those are the true patriots, risking their and their families’ safety to do what’s right.
