They need the max sentence, every time. None of them are sorry; they're just telling the judge what they think he wants to hear. They might as well not be sorry making license plates for a decade.
I feel like immediately showing that you lied to the judge should allow for revising your sentence.
ETA: It amuses me to think about this chud feeling like a badass with his act of defiance in the court room. Later, he has the "oh shit," realization when he arrives at his cell.
Could you fucking imagine going to prison for a decade because of that orange sack of shit? Treating politics as a religion is a complete mystery to me. Kinda like religion itself, but that's another rathole.
So this smoothbrain has his ‘I am Spartacus’ moment, his 2.5 minutes of fame. As the endorphins wear off and he comes to terms to the fact that he ain’t seeing outside past the ‘yard’ for the next decade. Assuming the genpop doesn’t try to do him for shit and giggles
Next year is gonna get real ugly, and I think it will all depend on who wins the Republican nomination.
If Trump gets it, which is very likely, unless the Republican Party puts a moratorium on allowing convicted felons to represent their party in the presidential race, then Biden has a chance of winning re-election, since you'd hope that a good portion of the public would want to keep an insurrectionist out.
DeSantis or Ramaswamy getting the nomination and effectively distancing themselves from Trump would mean Biden is in big trouble, unless Trump makes the bold move of running as an independent candidate and driving his most loyal supporters away from the Republican vote. And I think given how the Republican Party nearly got away with overthrowing the state and placing themselves in charge, America could be very close to a civil war or falling into a totalitarian dictatorship.
If I'm being generous, maybe that was his last ditch attempt to get Trump to give him a pardon. Of course that's not going to play well with the parole board down the line, so probably not a smart play. Or he's just a fucking moron. Yeah, probably that.
I can't help but think about this from time to time: it is a series of curses on humanity that instead of being some miserable failure as a businessman who would only end up conning a few dozen people before committing suicide due to awareness of the scum that they are, he somehow instead became a celebrity and then a cult leader turned fucking president.
@FlyingSquid I'm reiminded of Julius Streicher the publisher and editor of Der Sturmer the virulently anti-semetic pro NAZI paper doing a "Hiel Hitler" right before than hanged him. #Trump#TrumpTrial@GOP#Cult
It's the strategic thing to do. Tell the court what they want to hear in order to improve your chances of a reduced sentence. I would imagine that the judge has decided the sentence before they hear the final plea but it can't hurt to try some last ditch emotional manipulation.
Dude, you are going to prison. You don't want to be associated with MAGA when going to prison. Best case scenario you will spend the whole time in solitary. Because those hardened criminals want nothing more than to show you the real world.
