Analysts Confirm Our Worst Fear; Trump Could Potentially Still Serve As POTUS From Prison Or House Arrest

The American people have just witnessed history in the making.

After literal years of waiting on bated breath to see Donald J. Trump finally held accountable to the law and his crimes — and many, many sleepless nights of truly wondering if that day would ever come — American history was made just moments ago when a jury of 12 of Donald Trump’s peers delivered a guilty verdict against the former president on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in the Manhattan Stormy Daniels Hush Money trial, after nearly 12 hours of deliberation spread across two days.

This is the very first time, in the history of the United States of America, that a sitting or former US president has been convicted of a crime.

However, celebrations among Americans who have long been waiting for this moment are bittersweet, at the very best, as analysts are already warning that our worst nightmare could soon come true — as there is technically nothing stopping Donald Trump from not only running but serving as President of the United States potentially while on house arrest or even from prison in the wake of his felony conviction.

The unsettling discussion came during a CBS News panel directly following Trump’s verdict.

Major Garrett and Jan Crawford discussed the unprecedented possibilities we could soon see in the United States, with the presidential election right around the corner and a presumptive nominee of a major party formally convicted of more than 30 felonies:
