When the jury declared it was deadlocked, I didn't think he'd be found guilty of all charges.

I assume he will face more charges in California and perhaps there will be an opportunity to add on to the sentencing.

I suppose he could also receive a pardon from 45.

I hope so. He's looking at up to 25 years in NY.

I don't think Trump can pardon someone convicted of a state crime, only federal.

I hope he spends the rest of his life in prison.

Oh, I bet you are 100% spot on about the pardon. I think I had a duh moment. Boy, he has certainly aged in the last year. I had no idea he was using a walker like that until court.

Whether he actually needs the walker or is using it to look like he’s too feeble to have done what he’s charged with is the question. I don’t believe he used one in public until the trial, but I could be wrong.

He's apparently having heart palpitations so that might be why he's been hospitalized.

The disgusting man is probably going to rot away in prison. I hope that is the case.

Why would the President pardon him?
