For 34 Felonies, Trump Gets...Nothing | Frontpage Mag

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

37% : His sentence is nothing, which is altogether fitting and proper, since the case was nothing, the alleged offenses were nothing, and the evidence against Trump was nothing.
35% : On Friday, the whole thing petered out with the left having the victory of being able to crow that Trump is a "convicted felon," but with the oddity of the fact that the sentence he received in itself constitutes a rebuke of that label.
30% : The charges against Trump was nothing from the beginning.
30% : The whole idea was to make sure that Trump wouldn't be elected president again in 2024, and it didn't work.
26% : If Trump really did all that, he should have gotten some penalty.
24% : Click here to sign up.]President-elect Donald Trump was sentenced on Friday for the 34 felonies he supposedly committed in falsifying business records, and he received an unconditional discharge, which means that Trump will serve time in prison, or be fined, or even be put on probation.
23% : New York extended the statute of limitations on these particular crimes just so that Trump could be prosecuted.
23% : After all, Assistant District Attorney Josh Steinglass said that there was "overwhelming evidence to support the jury's verdict" and claimed that Trump "has caused enduring damage to public perception of the criminal justice system and has placed officers of the court in harm's way."
23% : "It's been a political witch hunt," Trump also said.
22% : The upside for Trump is that now he can appeal and get the conviction overturned; in the meantime, on Friday, he held nothing back as he commented on the whole ridiculous affair.
21% : And what Trump was accused of doing, paying hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels, is common business practice: large corporations routinely pay settlements without acknowledging guilt, just to make a nagging problem go away.
18% : "This has been a very terrible experience," Trump said via a virtual hookup.
17% : "Trump added: "I think it's an embarrassment to New York and New York has a lot of problems, but this is a great embarrassment."
