Summary
Should he win, Trump would become the first convicted criminal to hold the office, granting him access to the nuclear codes, while defeat could lead to more trials and possible imprisonment.
Throughout his life, he has often evaded legal consequences—from discrimination lawsuits in the 1970s to recent fraud cases and the dissolution of his charitable foundation. Accusations of sexual misconduct and a history of falsehoods have marked his personal and political life.
Despite these challenges, Trump portrays himself as a victim of a corrupt system, turning legal battles into rallying cries. This election may bring a reckoning that even he cannot escape.
But he’s not useful to them in Russia, so they might just let him hang and prop him up as a martyr.
Nah, they have a playbook for this. They’ll put him on house arrest and trot him out every couple of years to make a speech about how terrible and corrupt the US is.
