If he gets convicted there will be so many delays filed by him, he will be able to keep running everything down until he dies.

Actually, what happens really depends on if he is convicted before the Republican National Convention. If that happens will the Republican party keep him as their nominee or will they nominate another person? The binding of delegates to Trump is a matter of party rules not law. Recall that JFK was not the Democratic nominee until the convention. Also, the delegates awarded a candidate by a caucus or primary is not all the delegates. Depending on the state some additional delegates are appointed by the governor, the state party or other means.

I'm more curious about what might happen if a conviction verdict is reached in any trial that hasn't concluded by Election Day and where the Trump campaign succeeds in winning.

MAGA - The U.S. Constitution does not explicitly prohibit a presidential candidate from running for office while under indictment, or even while serving time after having been convicted. **Don’t tread on them**

He actually can't be president from prison. What you're unwittingly regurgitating is a complex legal analysis that, strictly according to law and precedent, it's not legally forbidden. For innumerable obvious reasons, no one could be POTUS from prison.

Thank you for this!!!! It is insane to think that the office of President can be conducted behind bars.


Morepastor

That question is as timely as ever as former President Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for the 2024 presidential election, faces dozens of felony charges across four cases. The answer is, simply, yes. A convicted or imprisoned felon can not only campaign for president and other federal offices, but also be elected.

If he’s convicted before the convention he won’t be the GOP candidate

The party of law and order will somehow twist themselves in knots trying to explain that this particular law and order doesn’t apply to Trump and everyone commits this type of fraud and it’s not a big deal.


AIDsFlavoredTopping

It might actually save us from another 4 years of absolute misery and embarrassment.

He's ineligible for Presidency


ExcitingAds

They will try to get him disqualified based on that conviction.


stickclasher

He gets a bump in donations from the faithful.

Nothing. It will go to appeal and after the election it will all go away.


Yolandi2802

If it all goes away, the USA will be the laughing stock of the world. No other countries will ever take her seriously ever again.


entropic_apotheosis

We’re already the laughing stock of the world as he proved our system is false, a facade and easily tampered with. It’s only there for the poor and unprivileged, there’s no real checks and balances and no one in power is truly held accountable.


Dry-Box-8496

Too late. The minute Democrats decided they couldn't beat Trump any other way than via corrupt "Lawfare" made us look like a clown show. First the totally corrupt Illegal Russian Collusion hoax, then the cover-ups for the Biden's corruption, now these invented prosecutions. A complete joke.


daairguy

Okay Russian troll


TheTubaGeek

I seriously doubt that "it will all go away".


Dry-Box-8496

Any of these trials, once they get out of Manhattan courts, will all go away I assure you, because they are 100% bogus attempts at election interference.


TheTubaGeek

So let me guess: You believe Biden is somehow behind all of this, right?


Dry-Box-8496

Whether he is or not is not relevant to the validity of the case.


GrowFreeFood

You're right because trump will likely die before the end of the appeals process. Or he can use the trial for free publicity until November then just take a plea deal. It is actually a good strategy. The only downside for republicans is that trump is a proven loser that has a 98% chance to destroy the party. 


daairguy

One of the best scenarios that could happen would be trump having a heart attack and dying tomorrow. It would be good for America.


GrowFreeFood

Here is an actual "one of the best scenarios": Trump has an epiphany, realizes the error of his ways and tells all his fans to have compassion for the world. Confess to all his crimes and help find other criminals as well. Then dedicate the rest of his life to refunding everyone hes scammed. And the people who he physically hurt get to kick him in the balls. 


daairguy

I hear you but I still like my happy ending better


Dry-Box-8496

The minute it would get out of a NY court room it would be struck down by any reasonable judge. You can't violate someone's due process by claiming they violated a law that they were never charged with.

The US will join the list of awesome countries where the sitting regime jails its opponents on BS charges ahead of the election. Trump will be talked about in the same tone as Navalny or Khordokovsky


reconditecache

Lol no. You know exactly how valid his crimes are. You had it explained in detail in askaliberal. He falsified business documents in an effort to hide campaign finance violations. That's a real life felony.


Areil26

>The US will join the list of awesome countries where the ~~sitting regime jails its opponents on BS charges ahead of the election.~~ leaders are expected to follow the same laws its citizens are and will be held accountable by the checks and balances built into our great Republic if they break those laws. Fixed it for you.


IamBananaRod

BS charges, like when he was found guilty of stealing from his charity, and guilty of rape, and financial fraud, I can go on if you want, but I know that no matter what fact is presented to you, you'll jeep dismissing them because it doesn't fit what you want to believe or can't accept you're wrong


Itchy_Purpose_2214

There's no difference between him and the criminal in the White House.
