      I won’t get my hopes up until after

      Even if it all goes as it should, and he sees at least some consequence, it’s a travesty that it took so long. Even if he was behind bars today, the damage to what passes for justice in the US is done.

      Rich people are above the law.

      I’m glad his supporters have given him all their money at this point. Nowhere for these fuckers to go to beg for money except the very obvious and illegal sources which will land his ass in even more hot water. Agents of the court are all up in his banking business, and he can’t work his way out of this one without getting caught red handed doing something…hopefully.

      The only reason he’s gotten away with it so far is that people thought he was rich. But since it’s all loans, it turns out he’s not. As a result, he’s starting to have to play by the normal people rules, and that’s going to suck for him.
