    Be nice if we could see some convictions for his more serious crimes, but even Capone only went down over taxes.

      If he gets elected again, I’ll say it’s a pretty safe bet he will never see punishment or even a trial for his most serious crimes.

      But until then, I agree we will have to take what we can get; at least NY was able to get him for fraud. Hopefully this poll is correct and that’s enough to persuade people on the fence. Sadly, when it comes to Trump I am not too optimistic because he seems to have an uncanny ability to defy conventional political wisdom and succeed.
