    I think the chances are that he’ll be on house arrest in Mar-a-lago. He deserves supermax, but when has what people deserve been relevant in the criminal “justice” system?

      I feel like this might be the best case given the security requirements. Obviously, Mar-A-Lago wouldn’t be allowed to operate as a club anymore. The Federal government could take it over and turn it into Trump Prison. Nobody would be allowed in unless they were working to support Trump Prison.

      Strip one bedroom down to the bare walls and put a prison cot in there. Keep the door locked from the outside with guards posted 24/7. Trump stays in there all the time except for meals and an hour of “outside time.” The room has no TV and he’s not allowed any electronics so there wouldn’t be any tweeting/“truthing”/etc from his home-turned-prison.

      When he goes to eat, he’ll walk past the bare walls that used to signify that he was the King Of The Complex. Now, they’ll only signify glory days long gone. A bruise to the ego with every step. When he sits to eat, he’ll be in the same dining hall where he used to get served fabulous meals. (Or, at least, what passed for “fabulous” at Mar-A-Lago.) Instead, he’ll get standard prison food.

      Even his “outside time” would be bittersweet to Trump. Instead of time outside talking with bigwigs on the way to go golfing, he’ll be shuffling around with armed guards nearby and no bigwigs to lavish praise on him.

      Trump would be an empty shell of a man living in an empty shell of a club.

        They’re not going to treat it like real prison for him - I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t have the run of the resort… Likely including daily golf.

      I was really hoping for the presidential desk crammed in a cell. Him all dressed up like he’s still going to work every day… reduced to rubbing Cheetos on his face because he can’t get bronzer.
