Not going to happen

I so badly want this to happen, but it's not going to happen

Nobody is going to put an elected present in jail. It’s game over.

Oh God, PLEASE, I know by now it won't happen, but I'm begging

Battle of the billionaires, make no mistake the way i see it, the world is being fought over by conflicting groups of billionaires. There's the current winner group the christo-fascist sect. The competing Tech-bro billionaires who want us all to live like foxxcon slaves and unfortunate dead last is the humanist billionaires who actually wanted to do some good while stealing us blind.

I'd assume any sentence for time to serve would be suspended until after his term.

That said, it would be very funny to be in a time where the US President could not visit certain states because he would be arrested.

Haha, hahahahaha, he could be in jail already for years and there's people thinking he'll go now? Hope is nice, but that's just a dream

Y'all know even if that were to happen, assuming the Biden administration even allows this, the military would storm in whatever holding cell hes in and break him out on January 20, then he'll invoke the insurrection act and order the arrest of NY state officials for treason.

It is not actually legal to do this. A state can't interfere with the functioning of the federal executive branch. Most constitutional scholars would say the sentence just gets suspended until the end of his term.

Yes it would be funny, it would also probably cause a civil uprising.
