Step 1, appeal to supreme court. Step 2: go free.
Step 1.5: rot in solitary confinement in the meantime.
It's not much, but it's not nothing either.
Step 1.75 Epstein as a verb
Don't joke about that, you get me excited.
That's the plan, but it's not clear how it's going to work. There's a question of why the Supreme Court of the United States would be allowed to address state crimes at all. Most of the time, they aren't allowed to.
The answer to your question is "fuck you 6-3, laws for you, not for me!"
That does seem like a distinct possibility, and I don't think it would make anything worse. It's not like he is going to be locked up during the presidency, so if they do anything else to undercut attempts to hold him accountable, it only makes their reputation worse.
And if the US recovers, after several years or after many years, it's good to have more information about exactly how f***** up that court was so we know what kinds of things we need to try to prevent from ever happening again. Do we need a constitutional amendment to prevent the court from accepting bribes? How about one that says the president can't pardon themselves? How about one that says convicted felons can't run for office? There are all sorts of constitutional amendments that we didn't know we needed until this court came about. So please, let them deliver more to us, especially if it's a situation like this where there wasn't going to be justice anyway.
