      All his meals would have the catered in.

      I’m sure there is a McDonald’s nearby secret service can fetch his meals from.

          Y would any sane person want to make him healthier? He’s got 3 years tops. I’m surprised he’s lived this long from what I’ve heard about his diet and lack of exercise.

            Doesn’t drink, doesn’t smoke, has a good doctor.

            Not that surprising.

      You don’t want him to stay in jail.

      Speak for yourself!

      Not only would I be ecstatic about that for all the obvious reasons, as an Atlanta resident I’d also appreciate more of a spotlight being put on what a shithole the Fulton County jail is, to help shame the county commission into fixing it.

      Why would his meals be catered?

      And jails have seg units. So a cell by himself isn’t hard Secret Service can stand outside the door.

          It’s not like your name is on your tray in jail so someone would have to poison the whole jail basically.

          And if they need to, the Secret Service can make him a damn ham and cheese sandwich.

          You really don’t have any idea what jail is like I take it? So I’m going to paint a picture. It’s not a resort. You don’t get your own food. You don’t get a room. You get a cell with a metal toilet with no ring and no lid. You get a metal sink and three trays of slop a day. That’s all that they’re required to provide.

          And if needed, jails are quite capable of segregating inmates in a single cell with 24 hour lockdown. Maybe with an hour out for rec by himself. If the jail is equipped for it.

          He’ll be quite safe. Uncomfortable and probably screaming like a baby until he tires himself out. But safe.

                  That would be quite the look for the US.

                  In fact, it’s already quite the look, with him being the leading candidate of his party. Madness.

                    Man, a sitting president in prison would be almost the perfect embodiment of American symbolism. Only thing to make it more so would be if he was in prison for shooting up an elementary school while holding a Bible and screaming “USA USA” from a mobility scooter, all while the police gave him a standing occasion from atop the back of a choked-out black man.

                    Man, as a veteran of that same country, this whole situation makes me wonder what it was for… I’m waiting for all of this to make sense.

                  Not if they actually follow the 14th amendment, this would solidify him as having been involved with a coup against the country and should bar him from holding office unless 60% of congress allows him.

              This article is mostly about the federal prison system. They may have different rules about segregation units. Minimum yard time, stuff like that. The article mentions movement and keeping a protective bubble around Trump, two issues that state prisons and county jails solve every day with extended segregation units when housing high profile prisoners. Yes, having Secret Service in the prison would make things a bit more complicated but much less so if Trump was in segregated housing.

              Not that I think extended seg time is a great way for anyone to spend their life. But this idea that Georgia can’t figure out how to put him in prison if they want to just isn’t true. It’s just not that complicated once you take movement and other prisoners out of the equation.
