wildncrazyguy @kbin.social So now it will likely go to the State's appellate court. I'd venture it won't be resolved by Election Day.
And now we get to find out if the US citizenry have the audacity to elect a convicted felon as president. Oh, what a precedent to set.

Sure, but now Biden and everyone else gets to refer to him as “convicted felon Donald Trump.”

Nurgle @lemmy.world Well there’s one republican who likely won’t be voting for him in November now that he’s a convict. And that is Trump, since he realistically won’t be able to vote in Florida.

No_Ones_Slick_Like_Gaston @lemmy.world It's curious that none of the targets the Republicans have pursued had been given a veredict of this nature by a jury. It's like all the Hillary - Hunter - Joe - Name your own dude are really a witch hunt.

When you believe in a conspiracy, more evidence can only prove you right.
