    Being a convicted felon, can he even vote for himself now? I’m pretty sure Florida doesn’t allow felons to vote.

      FL defers to the law in the state where the conviction happened, and NY allows felons to vote as long as they are not incarcerated when they need to vote.

          Some commentators have solid arguments for why he will get incarceration. More believe he won’t. Nobody believes he will actually spend any time behind bars, because even if he does get prison time, it will be suspended pending appeal. The appeals process will take so long that he’ll be dead before it’s over.

      The thing I’m thankful for is that the fucker can’t legally enter Canada right now.
