Trump will pardon him.

At first I wasn't sure if that was possible. But pardoned the J6 fuckers in the same district so I think it is. But who am I kidding? Laws don't matter. It would happen anyways.

It's a civil suit, and not a criminal one. There's nothing to pardon, and even if somehow he warped the universe so that would make sense, it doesn't negate the judgement being awarded.

If Trump can pardon a corporation, he will find a way to keep Lindall from paying a penny.

We are no longer in a land that observes law and order.

Sure, he's a dictator in chief right now, so I get it.

But remember, trump has a looooooooooooong history of throwing people that take bullets for him, under a bus.

Just ask his longtime lawyers, Cohen, or Giuliani.

Trump only cares about people useful to him. When you lose that, you may as well be dead to him.
