Why Donald Trump will NEVER go to jail Court in the Act
-
- True Crime
This month, Donald J Trump became the first president, present or former, to face a criminal trial in the United States. And the allegation was that he, and his minions, along with the National Enquirer “orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 election”.
A scheme involving a porn star, a publisher called Pecker, and an Australian sports reporter turned gossip king.
Joining us to break down the case of THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK against DONALD J. TRUMP, is Associate Professor David Smith from the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney.
Judge Juan Merchan has reprimanded the former President for his outspoken commentary about the trial, even fining the 2024 presidential candidate $900 for repeated breaches of a gag order.
The Judge even hinted at prison if he was to continue. However, in this episode we outline the logistical, legal and political reasons Donald Trump will NEVER go to jail.
