    Hell yeah, way to go! And then it can go all the way though to a trial, be found guilty, and the judge presiding on the case can say he’s guilty, and then punish him by doing FUCKING NOTHING.

    On January 10, 2025, the judge gave Trump a no-penalty sentence known as an unconditional discharge, saying that punitive requirements would have interfered with presidential immunity.
