Former President Donald Trump on Sunday said he thinks there would be a “breaking point” for the public if he is sentenced to house arrest or imprisonment after he was found guilty on all counts in the hush money trial last week. Lawrence O'Donnell joins Morning Joe to discuss.

The public is fine with you going to jail, they can take it.

[cartoonraccoon]

Oh imagine that: he claims he didn't say something, but there is hours of video of him saying it.

[BenjiOrthopedic]

70 million dollars fundraised from people who complain that Biden made everything unaffordable. 😂

[marciafierro]

Running to the Supreme Court Judges to have them co-sign on his TOTAL BS! is pathetic 🙄

[scottcantrell]

Just a reminder that Martha Stewart got a 5 month prison term for a first offence, white collar crime.

[mikebeck]

I'm a member of the public. I'd be fine with it if he was sent to jail.

[EvaLzeecee]

Guilty! And Afraid…. Asking for pardon already.

[candersson]

Mike Johnson talking about the rule of law is the ultimate hypocrisy.

[joet.]

Any other person would go to jail being convicted of 34 felonies. So should Trump!

[LMM]

Someone made the point that if inflation is causing so much hardship for MAGA how are they able to come up with 70 million??

[JMUDoc]

Trump: I'm OK with jail.
Also Trump: save me, Supreme Court!

[jtk]

Of course he should get the same sentence as Michael Cohen! Jail time!

[wm.scottpappert]

Oh please, does he realize how many Americans WANT to see justice and him in jail ... ??

[markmierzejewski]

People need to stop making excuses for the dumbest President in American history.

Stop making excuses and move on from this loser..

[helanna]

Dear Donald - we are okay with you going to jail as well.

[susanwigfiwigfield]

Public supports jail time. He is a legend in his own mind.

[KatieReadsKoziesAndMore]

trump is wrong…again. I guarantee that I will be very angry if trump doesn’t go to jail. LOCK HIM UP!

[adenshures]

Trump needs to be locked up for contempt of court. Let him run for President from a prison cell.

[dannybagley]

This public will be perfectly fine with Trump getting 10 years in prison.

[JanBirkeland]

I’d be dancing in the street, if he got put in prison!
