It’s a fair point. I think the key in political contests is to win over undecided voters. You will never win over the Maga zombies. You probably won’t win over “my family votes Republican” voters. But there’s a chance with the almost impossible to understand undecided voters.
The people who thought “Trump is a businessman and we need a better economy” or “Trump is a billionaire so isn’t subject to corruption” might see him differently now. Both of these takes are laughably naive but undecided voters tend to also be low information, last minute people. They get a vague sense of things and go with that. Seeing Trump humiliated on a money issue might do it.
That’s just one scenario.
In some purple districts the vote margins are really narrow. A few thousand voters going D instead of R can do it. It’s why third party candidates are so damaging.
That’s been out in the open for quite some time, but I do not see his numbers dropping. Why would they not use that as a win - not paying the fake trial money! Witch-hunt !!1!
It will still be “our guy” against the government and wicked judges. I can’t see it hurting him at all in the race.
Someone will front the money - it’s a golden opportunity for a lot of high stakes players to “save” him
This take is missing the point a little. The undecided voter is where this matters and you won’t see them moving polls. Some districts that affect the outcome are very close calls we where a few thousand undecided going D instead of R can make a difference.
Edit - sorry, was trying to reply to a comment higher up about losing support.
Would be a great opportunity for Russia to funnel the money to him via some stooge or another. Trump’s so on sale, even compared to how on sale he normally is
He will just turn it around on how the DA is doing the bidding of the Biden regime to try and take him out because everyone knows he like money and people know what it’s like when the government tries to take more money from you than they should and that is what Biden is trying to do. But we’re not going to let him. You fine patriotic are going to make sure it doesn’t happen by giving to the true patriot fund.
Really, an inability to pay will be far more damaging to his campaign than a criminal conviction or jail time. Let’s see how it goes.
That presumes his pithed supporters gave a crap about anything but overt racism and lies.
Spoiler: They do not

They will seize his assets if he doesn’t pay. He has 30 days.

It will be interesting to watch, that’s for sure
Agree. And a bit terrifying

Not really, IMO. These clowns seem to sit on debt with no punishment or real enforcement.
