I don't want to get my hopes up, but this feels very "end of the line" for him.

he'll get out of it one way or another. i don't even know how they're letting this guy declare a run for presidency

There are only 3 requirements for being/ running for POTUS:

Natural born citizen 35 years old 14 year residency in the US

In theory he could be found guilty, still elected and serve from a federal jail cell.

For some reason I was under the impression they couldn't be convicted of a crime
