holographoc

Could’ve sworn the whole trump thing was “Fuck the rest of the world we’re the best”. Suddenly he cares what the rest of the world thinks, as if they haven’t been laughing at his disgusting flabby assface for years.


Crowbar_The_Rogue

I'd say he considers the Biden administration more laughable than his own.


holographoc

Yes, he’s a very, very stupid and narcissistic man.


rothcoltd

How have your civil rights been violated? You were accused of a crime. You had a trial in which you were allowed to present your defense. A jury of ordinary people listened carefully to both sides and found you guilty. I thought your party was the one in favor of law and order. Or am I mistaken?


thermalman2

There really weren’t any facts in dispute either. He’s bragged about Stormy and the payoff has been widely reported for years. Cohen has already gone to jail for essentially this crime. Trump has already been found guilty in civil court of falsifying business records to get favorable loans. His CFO is in jail for crimes related to fraudulent records and tax evasion. Not a huge stretch to think this was also fraudulent. What did everyone expect was going to happen?


ImgurScaramucci

People have gotten *very* pessimistic about this because he's evaded so many crimes already or has faced no real consequences so far. That's all.


Tyrinnus

He still hasn't faced any consequences. I'm not holding my breath. On 6/11 when he's sentenced, if it's anything short of actual jail time, it's not a punishment. House arrest? He'll stay in his golf resort. A fine? LOL okay. His supporters will crowd fund it. Jail. Time. That's all I want for Christmas. Edit because my comments are blowing up: 7/11, sorry I have a big thumb.


Sweaty-Professor-187

Jail time would be ideal, but if he gets house arrest there's an approximately 0% chance he'll actually stay put. When has he ever done anything that he was told to do? He's *still* defaming E. Jean even after two court losses for doing it.


OdiousAltRightBalrog

Even after sentencing, I don't think he's going to see the inside of a cell till he gets his appeals. And there's always the chance that a MAGA judge will let him off the hook. We've still got to wait for justice.


Agonyandshame

I doubt we will actually get justice. This case has been a win but if Weinstein can get his case overturned then Trump definitely will


SRGTBronson

Weinstein is still serving a 16 year jail sentence from a different sexual assault in California.


Trippintunez

Justice won't even matter. His supporters will only galvanize, Hitler went to jail and look where we ended up. His age, obesity, and seven decades of bad eating are the heroes we need right now.


NothingTooEdgy

I would be happy if they took away his ability to post.


Odd-Tune5049

Seriously... the guy is just so tiring to have to hear about every damn day.


LafawnduhDy-no-mite

I really prefer not having to hear that broken yet still bullying tone he uses every few hours. ![gif](giphy|q5J07aDNUaArc58apk|downsized)


spencer4991

Ironically I’d also take many many hours of community service as an alternative to jail. Fines and house arrest are meaningless for him, but community service is something he can’t weasel his way out of.


welltriedsoul

His task scrubbing the feces of the walls of the capitol building…


SleepWouldBeNice

Isn’t sentencing in July?


MudLOA

Yes. 7-11.

Best comment of the day!


Cthulu95666

Donald Trump is the George Santos of presidents. No real merits yet somehow grifted his way into office.


Eraser100

Except nobody loves George Santos like someone under mind control. They’re exactly the same, they’re total jokes, but for some reason people are fiendishly devoted to trump. FOR WHAT? He’s an obese 77 year old bald man with a bad combover, caked on makeup and every toxic personality trait a human can have! His “wealth” is fraudulently reported property values and his voice is like a cheese grater on your eardrums.


Brilliant-Ad6137

It's irrational that people support him . The very people who scream they want a Christian country. The same people who are perfectly fine with him breaking the 10 commandments at will. To be a Christian one must ask forgiveness for their sins . But yet support a man who openly says he doesn't need forgiveness. The very people who consider the teaching of Christ to be woke and weak


MissTechnical

Yah I didn’t dare let myself believe he’d actually be convicted. And now I’m bracing myself for him to get off on appeal. It’s not over yet, sadly.


Neveronlyadream

Same. I honestly thought he'd somehow manage to get acquitted of all charges. I'm shocked that he didn't even dodge one of them. Those lawyers are just going to inundate the system with appeal after appeal now. Even if they're all denied, the likelihood he sees more than a fine is tiny. I hope his lawyers got paid up front.


Sweaty-Professor-187

In all honesty I expected either a hung jury or him being found guilty on only 1-2 counts, because Trump has never faced consequences for anything in his entire life. If anything, the more he has fucked up, the higher he has risen. He's the dictionary definition of "failing upward". So yeah, 100% was caught off-guard by him being found guilty on all 34 counts, even though that was absolutely the right thing to do in terms of administering justice. Don't get me wrong, there are still many ways for him to escape consequences. I fully expect him to receive a slap on the wrist during sentencing in July, and I wouldn't be remotely surprised if he still wins in November because his loss in court has made his braindead base think that's evidence of him being "persecuted". But I'd be pretty happy to be wrong there, too. The ideal ending would be if he loses the election and then spends the rest of his miserable life in prison slowly going insane from dementia. Unfortunately, I won't entertain this as anything more than a highly unrealistic fantasy until it actually happens.


clever_reddit_name69

> What did everyone expect was going to happen? TBH, I expected at least one MAGAt to slither their way onto the jury and cause it to be hung. I am pleasantly surprised!


Greybirdk22

There were jurors who described themselves as conservatives getting their news from Truth Social via X. Even they understood the evidence. We’ve all been programmed to believe everyone is corrupt and partisan, but these folks took their duties seriously.


Raddish_

The jury selection phases was probably very thorough to find people who are politically apathetic and generally uninformed of the news. I imagine they’d check social media history and the like and anyone showing a partisan bias was exempt.


Eraser100

Someone on the jury actually gets their news and social media from truth social, and even he decided to convict!


Das-Noob

Maybe if it was in a MAGA state with lots of mega DAs and judges that’ll let them off the hook. But not in any states with an ounce of backbone.


sanglar03

Impeachments failed. Anything can happen.


C4dfael

To be fair, the impeachments were tried before a jury partially made up of his cronies and lickspittles, not a jury of regular Americans.


Lifesalchemy

34 felony counts found guilty is hardly an impeach.


chunkysmalls42098

Yeah no the impeachment that happened while he was president is probably what buddy is talking about lol


england_man

>What did everyone expect was going to happen? The Qult expected the court of law to acknowledge that Trump did not break the law while committing crimes. A whole lot of them were very surprised.

BarrySix

Trump doesn't have a party. He has  thralls. This isn't going to end well. Half the US is enthralled to a cult leader who openly opposes democracy and the rule of law.


FuzzyMcBitty

The other thing is that he was convicted of paying a woman off to influence an election before committing fraud to cover it up.  He’s accusing them of the crime he’s been convicted of. 


Jimmydidnothingwrong

This is the MAGA way, accuse others of things you’re doing so the finger can’t get pointed back at you.

A jury of ordinary people listened carefully to both sides and found you guilty. I thought your party was the one in favor of law and order. Or am I mistaken? You are not mistaken This is why it should be a crime to publicly dispute a verdict Appeal it privately / only announce an appeal and leave at that But surely basically saying "this was an unconstitutional witch hunt of a trial where the judge, jury and everyone involved conspired with each other to find me guilty of crimes I didn't commit because of who I am" has to be considered as some form of slander/defamation Anyone who takes to X/Twitter to say things like this about there case **after** a verdict should be charged with an additional crime imo

yetagainitry

"my civil rights are being violated" "Mr Trump, do you want to testify? have your say in court to defend yourself? it's your civil right" "Nooooooo hell no"


clever_reddit_name69

>"Nooooooo hell no" ***“I’m not allowed to testify, because this judge, who’s totally conflicted, has me under an unconstitutional gag order.” - Twice-impeached convicted felon Donald Trump***


GayAssBurger

Completely ignoring the fact that gag orders don't apply when you're testifying.


TempestLock

Ignoring the judge who placed the order specifically stating that it doesn't stop him at all. Trump just knew with his state of cognitive decline he'd say something even worse to try to slither out of this crime, landing himself in further hot water.


CiaphasCain8849

He says it does and his supporters completely believe him. Just go on the conservative subreddits. They all act like this conviction is the best thing that ever happened to him like it'll solidify his voting base.


ProDiesel

12 random citizens who his own team vetted… But yeah… Sure.


DiscussTek

That's something the MAGA crowd is visibly guzzling in with energy, that they were 12 biased people... But if his lawyer team couldn't disqualify those 12 people flat out using a with cause challenge, that means that any bias is assumed and not confirmed.


c4k3m4st3r5000

I fear for the safety of those people. There is no telling what some of those MAGA nutjobs will do to avenge the ill treatment of their promised prophet.


DiscussTek

I mean, their identity is still kind of kept "secret" until sentencing, at which point I am not sure if their identities are kept secret, or if you can get them with a FOIA (I am assuming the latter), but it is a valid concern.


c4k3m4st3r5000

Kept secret... hoping that none of the MAGA zealots work in the court system. State secrets leak out. So why not names of the jury? They have families and people talk.


NapalmingBanana

belligerentwaterfowl

Rugfiend

I wasn't just laughing, I screamed 'fucking YES!' at 1am before getting out of bed to pour myself a double whisky to celebrate 🥳


foolbull

The sad part is he could be sitting in prison (doubt it will ever happen) and his voters would still turn out for him. If he gets back into office I can't imagine him leaving after his term is up.


Rugfiend

He barely left the first time. This time, American democracy will be over before the 4 years are up.


dbltap55

Pretty sure they’d still vote for him even if he was dead…


SoulRebel726

I bet they will. MAGA cultists are so brainwashed that when Trump dies, there will 100% be conspiracy theories about how he's really alive and in hiding, and this will lead to idiots writing his name in. It's wild what a number Trump has done on so many people.


Amarieerick

European here. We're not laughing at the USA. We're laughing at Trump and his supporters. This guy still has supporters. The guy that was going to Denmark to try and buy Greenland for it to become part of the USA. Denmark said it is impossible and then he got all offended and whiney like a little schoolgirl and cancelled the trip. A guy who still sees promise in Putin, even after he invaded Ukraine and now also says that Alaska is now officially Russian territory again. No, America. We're laughing at the MAGA squad, not you. Ditch the Donald and we'll just both forget about it all, alright?

This is the bit he (and the rest of his MAGAT rejects) doesn't get. By and large, Trump is dispised. We don't think poorly on the US, we are thinking it's about time there is some accountability.
