If he is convicted, he better be thrown into jail.

[functionatthejunction]

He should be convicted because he's GUILTY.

[What_do_I_Think]

I am not interested if he is "convicted" -- I am interested, if ANY judge will have the balls to put him into jail/prison.

[Tony-jppb]

would an INNOCENT person want to DELAY proving his innocence?

[JudeNance]

I can't wait for him to be held accountable. He is a pathological liar.

[wolfmangoland]

DT should be treated just like any ordinary citizen. If convicted he should be sentenced like an ordinary citizen.

[tracyhaverstick]

If he is found guilty, I hope Judge Merchan has the courage to send him to jail immediately.

[jerrykahler]

For someone that claims to be a victim and completely innocent he's sure doing everything that's possible to avoid proving it.

[telebubba]

If anybody needs to recuse herself, then it Judge Cannon. She clearly has a bias towards Trump.

[vanl]

Tired of delays withTrump’s court cases. He proclaims innocence, prove it in court.

[lisapeters]

" lie, deny, delay."I like your quote, Mr. Oneal.

[pockets]

How about having Aileen Cannon recuse herself...

[LouieSapcote-vyxl]

Take him to court, treat him like anyone else, if convicted sentence him to the same time as anyone else would get behind bars.

[summit]

It would be a great honour to go to jail?
Yay! Then everyone's happy!

[Bucinka]

He's willing to go to jail?

Judge Merchan: "Hold my beer."

[lonewolffisherman]

For someone who has done nothing wrong, he sure doesn't seem to want anybody to try to prove it.

[JusticeFALL-USA]

I agree 💯, he should have been forwarded to JAIL long ago. He continues to be the laughing stock worldly 🌍.

[maxxUSA]

The government has really called things more difficult for its citizens, and we can't sit back and bear all the consequences of the bad governance. It's obvious we are headed for inflation, it is always the poor who take the hit.

[johncurtis]

Lock him up. This legal exceptionalism is an incalculable harm to the very idea of American Justice.

[andrefortin]

I really don’t understand why the bum’s lawyers are not reprimanded for filing these repetitive, frivolous motions?
