    Cohen didn’t need a secret service detail.

    The Guardian are reporting it is unlikely he will see jail time

    Edit: it’s not a disagree button, it’s being widely reported he is unlikely to see jail time. that doesn’t mean i think he shouldn’t see jail time

      Everyone is reporting he won’t see jail time, which in my view is giving the court a pass on giving him a light sentence.

      In my opinion, Trump gained so much, and could gain so much from a repeat offense, that jail is the only compelling punishment for him. He is unrepentant, and would do it again in a heartbeat.

        You are correct, but nevertheless, a court so cowardly they cannot hold him accountable for blatant violations of court orders will not jail him either.

        He could never go to a traditional jail, not with the amount of classified information he was exposed to.

        He would need a separate area of Leavenworth with no interaction with other humans except the guard and secret service detail unfortunately assigned to him.

        Then he has hell to look forward to.
