      Lots of rich people convince judges they aren’t safe in prison without the help of the Secret Service. I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump could get house arrest instead of prison even without being reelected.

          No, maybe not a US declared war. That being said, North Korea seems pretty happy to shout death threats at you guys.

          If I was living in the US, I don’t think that I would want those guys to have any top-secret information that could effect the country I lived in.

      Also there is a VERY high chance he just straight up dies before he goes to prison, or even before the court date. Which might be the worst possible scenario, as the right wing crazies will go fucking ballistic with conspiracy theories blaming the deep state or the clintons or whoever the current boogeyman is and we will literally never hear the end of it
