Trump will not see a day behind bars in his lifetime.

Even if he does get convicted before November of 2024, which itself is not guaranteed, he will almost guaranteed be allowed to remain free while the appeals play out. This is a process that normally can take months or years. Throw Trump being Trump into the mix, and it's very likely the appeals will extend beyond his lifetime.

I used to think it would never happen. Now I think it just probably won't happen.

I'm not willing to bet the farm on him not going to prison anymore though. Shit is stacking against him, and there's almost certainly more criminal charges on the way.

One of his top employees broke down on the stand the other day and mentioned a handful of investigations including a criminal investigation that was not publicly known before then.

Fucker just needs to live long enough, but I don't know that his cardiovascular system has what it takes.
