He does what he wants anyway, yet everyone is too afraid of incarcerating him for it.
The motherfucker loves testing boundaries. The only ones he'd have to respect are physical, ie walls he loves so much. His whole life has been walking past rules, norms, and shouldn'ts, taking what he wants, and bragging about it.
Walls, preferably 4 of them surrounding him pending trial based on his lengthy prior record of ignoring court orders.
But Old Man Richie Rich will of course die comfortably in his bed while poories of color continue to get summarily executed for looking suspicious.
The absolute worst case for him is compassionate house arrest in the lap of luxury. Funny how the courts always seem to reserve their allocation of compassion for wealthy felons despite our "equal protections under the law," isn't it? His bone spurs ache too much for big boy prison, plus his affluenza is acting up. And even that is highly unlikely in our rigged, corrupted judicial system.
I knew old men in prison that could barely walk. He's not ill enough for a compassionate house arrest.
My understanding is the secret service detail for life is what's making prison unlikely. Not his health.
And if it is his health, he has no business running for a second term.
Oh ffs, what is the secret service's issue? He would be in federal prison, and if that's a safe enough place for everyone else it's safe enough for him. It's not like they'd have to worry about snipers. And if they don't like the idea of working in a prison as glorified DOC employees every day they can quit/get fired, I'm sure they'll be able to find some other security work that lets them have periodic scandals with drunken driving and sex workers somewhere.
It's almost like we have two separate justice systems…
