Should Donald Trump fail a second time to be re-elected he faces the very real possibility of jail time and massive financial penalties due to the sheer volume of criminal cases and civil lawsuits that are on hold until after the election.

That is the opinion of Syracuse University law professor Greg Germain who explained in an interview with Newsweek that the former president’s only path to get out from under the federal cases he now faces is to beat Vice President Kamala Harris in less than two weeks and then push the Department of Justice to drop the cases filed against him.

As Germain stated, the multiple federal cases Trump is facing are solid and his only path to victory may be having them shut down.

    We don’t get to have nice things.

    Not only is he going to win, by ratfuckery or otherwise, he’s going to jail people like Kamala and Schiff for made up nonsense… We sat through almost a decade of bullshit delays and everybody treating Trump like a king, but he’s going to have his sycophants lay the hammer down immediately on his opponents…

    I really really really really hope I get proven wrong…
