    So now it will likely go to the State’s appellate court. I’d venture it won’t be resolved by Election Day.

    And now we get to find out if the US citizenry have the audacity to elect a convicted felon as president. Oh, what a precedent to set.

      The flip side is it will give other juries courage to convict the man without deference to the office. Let’s not forget this is not his only, nor most egregious crime.

      Sure, but now Biden and everyone else gets to refer to him as “convicted felon Donald Trump.”

      Well there’s one republican who likely won’t be voting for him in November now that he’s a convict. And that is Trump, since he realistically won’t be able to vote in Florida.
