    Don’t underestimate the effect of “maybe some probation”. Having to check in with some probation officer on a regular basis (and probably pee in a cup each time, I’m not sure whether NY mandates that) will be super humiliating for him. Plus, I bet that the period on probation will be much longer than any prison sentence, and will extend through the election.

    Plus, in the event he still wins, I doubt NYC really cares. They will keep making him pee in that cup until his probation is over.

      Imagine the Biden campaign constantly trying to get interviews with “the Republican candidate’s probation officer”.

      Lolol I didn’t think of that. Imagine Trump trying to go to Russia or something as president and his PO says he can’t leave the country.

      Do you know if he starts his sentence while he appeals or is he gonna get off for the next year or so
