      To be fair, I’d never thought he’d get this far. So maybe, just maybe, at least in an alternate universe, justice will actually be served. 🤞

        I was about to ask if I could be transferred to that alternate universe, but maybe I’d actually like to be transferred to one where 2016 went drastically differently.

          You are allowed, but in that universe you must actually PokémonGO to the polls.

          Have you seen the directors cut of butterfly effect? Yeah, I’d like that ending in my alternate universe.

      The article says that a fine is more likely than prison time. So he’ll sell a few more hats, collect some donations from his base, and be good to go.

          Well, he’s not paying until the appeals process is over, which presumably will go way into the next presidential term.
