mriguy ,

Yeah, but unfortunately with how charged everything is if he gets anything he will claim political persecution and try to be a martyr

He’s doing that now. He will do it if he is sentenced, and ALSO if he doesn’t get jail time. Appeasing him gets you exactly nothing.

( his campaign has claimed they already raised 55m since the conviction).

His campaign claims a lot of things, none of them true. It would be surprising if this turned out to be the first time they weren’t lying.

It's why I think he didn't get really anything bad when he violated the gag order so much.

I think the judge was going overboard to give every benefit of the doubt to Trump so there would be no basis for appeal. I hope that’s the case.
