I was asking about indeed how long their sentence could be, and whether this would go on their permanent record. Something like having to register as a sex offender once you finish you sentence.
Gotcha. Register like a sex offender? No. Lists like that don't exist for any other set of crimes. So you can know if there's a 22-year-old convicted peeping tom on your block, but won't know if there's a guy who committed murder. It's odd, but the way it is. But will it be permanently on their criminal record? Yes.
Time will depend on the final charges brought. What's in these initial documents isn't necessarily what will be brought eventually, more significant charges are expected for some of those the FBI has already arrested and charged, they are most concerned right now with getting them off the street. The more serious, like this group, are in line for upgraded charges most likely. But so far, this is up to around 24 years in prison.

So the Donald is twice impeached and headed to twice acquitted. How close to 17 are the Dems likely to get? At least 10 I hope.
They'll be lucky to get 7. Tuesday's vote on the trial's constitutionality is probably the best indicator we have, and that was 56-44, with Cassidy, Collins, Murkowski, Romney, Sasse, and Toomey joining the Democrats.

That's not true though. For reasons unknown, he was pretty well liked pre-political career. It's why he's been seen in the most random places for the last 30 years.
Have you read the SAG letter? As hilarious as that was, it is true that he did appear in all those projects. He has been shunned by the celebrity class in the last 5 years, one of the groups that has held steady in their dislike and disdain, and the narcissist in him cares about that way more about that than he cares about so much more. Sad, but true.
I'd say he was found to be amusing and entertaining and boisterous. I'm not sure "well-liked" is what it really was. This might be my NYC bias though.

Must be that I have disliked him so much always. I loved everything Doonesbury put on him. But I would side with M8. Well liked seems so hard to accept

I'd agree with that in general. I put it as pretty well liked and not merely amused because it had been going on since the 80s. Cameos in movies and TV shows for years and years with even more appearances at just celebrity parties and events. He always seemed to have an invitation or be able to get himself on the list to get in. I remember seeing him in photos at many an Oscar party for instance. And though Celerity Apprentice may have been stock full of D-list celebrities, many weren't exactly unknown with no followings. George Takei being on there basically captures what I'm talking about. There's barely been a celebrity in the last 5 years more critical of his presidency, and yet just a few years earlier, he was on that damn show.

I'm not watching any of this but some of the information in these tweets is hilarious.
