He was found liable in another suit, a civil one, brought by E. Jean Carroll.

Yeah, I’m aware and sentencing will not happen. Have you grasped the straws yet?

And I don’t buy miss Carrol’s story. And neither should your high mind.

You are free to believe what you want Paul.

Whether I buy the reasoning or not...they happened.
For you to say Trump wasn't "convicted" is ignoring reality.
Whether I believe Carroll or not, he was held liable. To say he wasn't is ignoring reality.

You are free to ignore reality.

Yeah, you got your scalp Paul.

Tell me again about the Insurrection….

I find your posturing humorous considering the last two D nominated AGs were held in contempt of Congress. That also actually happened.

NBC considering selling the going bankrupt MSNBC. MUSK joking he may be interested.....just to fire Rachel Maddow for "fun". He would convert it into a conservative show highlighting the daily events occurring on X. Rogan wants Maddow's job and pledged to appear in her iconic look nightly.

Hey Siri. Is someone considered a convict before sentencing?

No, someone is not considered a "convict" before sentencing; a conviction only occurs once a court finds a defendant guilty, which happens either through a jury verdict or a guilty plea, and this typically happens before the sentencing phase of a criminal case takes place.
