Donald Trump said he would accept home confinement or jail time after his historic conviction by a New York jury last week but that it would be tough for the public to accept.
“I’m not sure the public would stand for it,” the Republican presidential candidate told Fox News in an interview that aired on Sunday. “I think it’d be tough for the public to take. You know, at a certain point, there’s a breaking point.”
Trump did not elaborate on what he thought might happen if that point is reached. He is scheduled to be sentenced July 11, four days before Republicans gather to formally choose their presidential nominee to face Democratic President Joe Biden in November’s election.
Asked what Trump supporters should do if he were jailed, Republican National Committee Co-Chair Lara Trump told CNN: “Well, they’re gonna do what they’ve done from the beginning, which is remain calm and protest at the ballot box on November 5th. There’s nothing to do other than make your voices heard loud and clear and speak out against this.”
And they’ll do it again in 2029. The most important part of that quote is their commitment to getting him another crack at it.
Vote in November.
Fuck me don’t say 2029. I feel my youth draining away
I feel you. I distinctly remember being inspired by a sci-fi show called Beyond 2000.
I’ve never seen anyone else mention that show. My brother and I used to watch it watch it all the time. It looks like it had a few different names/iterations, we watched The Discovery Channels verion in the U.S., in the early 90s.
That’s the one! I loved it. Such an intriguing and inspiring show. It would be interesting to watch it again to see what was actually developed.
