    Does she not know how judges work? Jesus Christ this woman is about to get her sentence revoked and replaced with the real sentence.

    Does she think she has some magic power now that she’s not indicted or on trial in Georgia (because she’s convicted now)?

    My mind boggles. I’m hoping that Trump just surrounded himself with crappy wheedling yes-man lawyers. The alternative, that these kinds of lawyers are common, is too scary to contemplate.

    The magic behind probation is that you can lose it at any time, and be sent to jail at any time, if you cross any line laid out in the agreement or reasonably implied by the agreement or if you’re flagrantly abusive of your probation. Pissing off the judge will get your leash yanked so hard and so fast you’ll briefly lose consciousnesses.

    Christ.
