any hope the orange asshole still holds for being reelected, I believe, just went up in a puff of smoke.

[Javaman]

and I think he knows that.

1. I won't really be happy till he's defeated in the election.

[Wednesdays]

2. You may be right, but

I want him and all of his ilk BURIED in a landslide this November! GOTV!

[magicarpet]

3. The MAGA cult meatheads,...

... likely think this felony conviction enhances trDUMP's toxic male alpha macho he man bona fides.

More meatheads will now come out of the woodwork and out from under the rock where they been hiding to vote for his sorry Fascist ass.

After all the conviction was rigged,... haven't you heard.

[yowzayowzayowza]

4. Perhaps more than that...

The coup de grâce of the Gingrich Contract with America?

5. I am willing to bet

This helps him out. He will become a martyr and more will vote for him, they will spin it as its all political and the only way to counter it is to vote for him. They already think all the cases are just political persecution and this will just cement it. Convicting him on all accounts was a mistake, and just makes it look more political. Heck they get video of a murder killing 2 people and charge them with 5 or 6 crimes and only get a conviction on 3 or 4.

7. No it won't

There is no way this "helps" him. You could argue (I don't) that it won't hurt him too badly, but helps him? Not a chance. He's already flogged the martyr thing to death.

Personally, I think this sinks him.

[ITAL]

10. I don't think it probably hurts him at all

And I don't believe this means Biden will for sure win. It's still gonna be super close in the Electoral College coming down to five or six states.

[FrankBooth]

11. There are no guarantees either way

But getting convicted of 34 felonies does not in any way "help" Donald Trump's chances to win the election. That's crisis management spin to feed to the MAGATs. The election just got a little easier for Biden to win, but of course, no guarantees that he will - Dems still need to GOTV and bury him.

[sop]

6. He's toast, but he'll never admit it.

Trump will now go completely batshit crazy on Truth Social.

[sarisataka]

8. I will not be satisfied

until I see the number 271 or greater next to Biden's name on November 6.

Don't let defeat escape the jaws of victory by being complacent again.

[FakeNoose]

9. No tears, he was going to lose anyway
