If there's ever been proof that America has an injustice system instead of a justice system:

• Trump is guilty of all 34 counts, is allowed to still run free, still allowed to run for president, still gets massive coverage from every piece of media, even ones that lean liberal.

• Every single black American has to worry about cops just randomly shooting them, without judge or jury, just executioner.

• Women had their bodily rights revoked by an illegitimate court.

• Trans people are new scapegoat after gay/bi/lesbian people struggled to get the same rights as the 90% since the 1960s at Stonewall.

But sure, we live in a free country where a fascist can be arrested, found guilty, lose more money than any person who could support such a fucking loser would ever see in life, and still do will in polls and not have serious challenge.

He needs to be in a prison cell.

He's sidestepping the poor people consequences, but he is losing money, time, and opportunities.

The American legal system isn't fair, but it's important to note that it's very significant Trump was convicted and is still facing sentencing and further charges.

This article is asking ridiculous questions. How can Trump be escaping the everyday realities of being a convicted felon?

The same way literally every wealthy person in the United States avoids them. There's nothing new about this.

It sucks but pretending to be shocked that a rich person doesn't suffer the same consequences as a poor person isn't really adding anything to the conversation.

My brother got thrown in jail for contempt of court for 30 days for ignoring a few things for the first couple of months following an initial divorce hearing over a year ago. He's lost his promising new job because of it. If I ever get thrown in jail for contempt of court it will be a life sentence because my contempt for the American justice system is endless.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

But for former president Donald Trump – who can leverage his wealth, power and influence to sidestep the consequences of his white-collar crimes that threatened 2016 elections – that “felon” label is helping him rake in millions of dollars.

Trump, meanwhile, memorialized his Georgia mugshot in T-shirts and Christmas wrapping paper, sweaters and souvenir credit cards, and leaned on his convictions, indictments and a narrative that paints himself as a victim to raise millions of dollars for his legal defense.

His campaign reported raising nearly $53 million within 24 hours after a jury in Manhattan found him guilty of falsifying business records connected to a hush money scheme involving an adult film star and a conspiracy to unlawfully influence the 2016 presidential election.

Other GOP allies are also hoping that the verdict could boost Trump’s support among Latino voters by tying the charges against him to Latin American regimes that targeted political rivals.

“People who don’t have power or aren’t as famous as Donald Trump is – the effect of that could be life altering, and it affects everything from employment to housing to social relationships and so forth,” he tells The Independent.

Carroll Bogert, president of criminal justice nonprofit publication the Marshall Project, wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post titled “Don’t call Trump a felon.”
