The BEST situation would be for the judge to say prison for a first offender is inappropriate. And then sentence the Mango Mussolini to 1000 hours of community service in which he'd pick up trash along the highway etc. And begin the 1000 hours in September.

He would absolutely not be in a jumpsuit on the side of the road doing community service. He would be assigned 1000 hours and then “work” with a charity putting his “skills” to use.

I’m speaking from experience. I had 120 hrs of community service and I did computer work for a well known charity.

But the orange has no useful skills to offer any REAL charity.

Other than manual labor, would you take financial advice from someone who bankrupted a casino!?

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 14 points 5 months ago

THREE casinos.

I'm going to guess you didn't piss off the judge.

Also going to guess that you're not known for staging a failed coup against the government.

[–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

But you have computer experience. The only things Trump is good at are grifting and lying. Not much community service fodder in that.

I just want him to have to piss in a cup before the debates so he can't take his hitler energy cocktail.

Don't put him on a highway chain gang, that gives him too much public exposure. His fanboys will basically flood that place, making the security of the guards a nightmare. Put him in a nice place where he can assemble, clean, or pack something without access to the crowds.
