A Trump resignation
There’s always a chance that an incarcerated Trump might admit that he should decline to serve as president for the good of the country. He could even declare his intentions before Inauguration Day or even be sworn in and then resign right away.
In either scenario, the duly elected vice president would then become president. However, this kind of prison-house conversion would seem highly unlikely.
As long as we’re debating, there are two other scenarios that are possible. One of them is more far-fetched than the resignation, but who knows?
A prison presidency
Remember those TV shows where an incarcerated mob boss doesn’t cease to pull the strings of his criminal organization from his prison cell? What if we’d see Trump in a similar position?
Maybe he would even enjoy the drama and spectacle of being the leader of the free world in a customized and lavishly appointed wing of a prison.
State and federal officials could be even more willing to make these types of accommodations, even if they’re not willing to let Trump go. If he can’t go to the White House, then he could make the White House come to him. We could call it “The White Prison.” The future seems bright, innit?

he needs to be in prison
Do you believe the Biden Crime Family shouldn’t go to prison too?
I hope you believe the Biden Crime Family should go to prison too? Biden doesn’t believe he can win fairly, so he uses democrat judges and prosecutors to help him win the election. That is really sad.
Wrong.
Trump violated no law. Presidents are immune to all classified doc laws, and can give permanent copies of any classified docs to anyone, including himself. The NY law Bragg used is to prevent scammers from adding false profit entries to books, and hush money NDA purchases are “legal expenses” for a celebrity. Jan 6 was protected political expression. There can be no such thing as a fraudulent elector since the parties pick them before the election, and they act in public sessions of the state legislature.
you must be Democrate. What a shame that you cannot be neutral. That really comes through with you article? It also seems you are very angry. It shows.
What is most illegal is trying to prevent an election with bogus charges against a candidate. I have NEVER seen anything as illegal as that in the whole history of the country.
