Hi Doug. As usual, I appreciate your take on the news and am so grateful for your insights. Just one little fact check on your statement that DT would not be incarcerated until all appeals were completed. I believe that, when someone is convinced of a felony, they are incarcerated immediately or shortly thereafter (if they get jail time as a sentence). If they want to appeal, they have to do so while in prison. Otherwise, every felon (including murders and rapists) would appeal their conviction so they wouldn't have to go to prison and all would be walking around free during that interim time. Thanks.

Well done, Doug. TY!
