The Fraudfather would like everyone to think it’s political. But sometimes, it’s just the law.

He’s developed a blinding game of “everything bad is a sham” though.

Shame it's his first offence but an historic day that will be taught in schools for generations to come

Saw a video clip a few days back in which Hilary Clinton says every time something goes against Trump it’s rigged. There was a good few things on her list.

The words of Bob Dylan from nearly 60 years ago ...

"While preachers preach of evil fates
Teachers teach that knowledge waits
Can lead to hundred-dollar plates
And goodness hides behind its gates
But even the President of the United States
Sometimes must have to stand naked."

Though it is assumed he was referring to Nixon, it seems more appropriate today.

Will it make any difference to your average American?

If your a Trump supporter this just confirms that the system is rigged against him, a few misdemeanours and a mysterious felony that was never actually specified brought to court by a politically motivated DA to be heard by a politically biased Judge.

Or if you’re not a Trumper then it’s just desserts for a despicable character who shames and embarrass’s the country every time he speaks.

The US is so partisan right now I hardly think it will make much difference.

I’d have thought that was unlikely given the song was written in 1964, and Nixon didn’t become President until 1968.

However, he did perform it often when the whole Watergate scandal was unfolding in 74, and it was obviously aimed at Tricky Dicky then.

On Trump, no chance he does any jail time. He will appeal it all the way up to the Supreme Court which is loaded with his picks.

At least it means he will be less likely to win in November.

Must be how I remembered it, given I was 4 year old in 1964, I wasn't paying attention until much later.

Some are saying the conviction is a guaranteed election winner.

Herein lies the problem. It will definitely galvanise the stupid.

Trump is the little boy he who was never told off. The spoilt brat who has stayed spoilt because anyone who argues with him gets fired.
What does a kid do when he asks did he do anything wrong? "It wasn't me, it was someone else", "it was the bad boy that did it", "I never did it".
He appeals to the psyche of many right-wing Americans as they want to believe what he says.
As has been said earlier, the USA is so fundamentally split politically and culturally at the moment. It's in a real mess.

But it doesn't matter how galvanized or angry his base gets, they still only get one vote each.
But those who are are on the fence, may be swayed by the verdict.
I guess we won't know for sure until November

I listened to the Trumped podcasts about the whole story about his building of Trump International in Aberdeen, confirmed what I thought about the man.

I see the main point in America is that there are so many anti politicians (as there is here) they will vote in anybody who opposes them regardless of character.

Is that the right answer

Would jail time make a difference although I don't for one minute think anyone is brave enough to try and impose that
