Sentences can include upward and downward departures from the guidelines based on the circumstances of the case. It's also important to remember that the guidelines are non-binding on judges.

2 decades is 2 decades. And, it's not like when he gets released he'll be hailed as a hero. Trump will be dead, most of his supporters will probably be dead of old age or COVID. The rest will be too embarrassed that they voted for him to admit it.

When he gets out he'll be 60. Having spent decades in prison, he won't be able to retire, and will probably live out the rest of his life working menial jobs that hire ex-felons until he dies in obscurity.

Yeah... Even if Trump wins there's no way he remembers or cares about anyone involved in Jan 6.

These guys are way more screwed than they realize.

Unfortunately, it could happen.

Most of the country is dealing with a 30% to 50% cost of living increase, and they're going to blame Biden for it. Trump got elected the first time because 6,000,000 were foreclosed upon when Obama was president.

That's a long time to fester in a place where they love rats.

Those in prison can't vote so Trump will just write them off as useless.

Don't think you understand what 20 years in prison looks like.

I don't either, but it sure would ruin my life

"Only" 20 years? There can be whatever number and people will still say it is too little

Guys losing 1/3 of his adult life, and won't get out of prison before his 60s. I'm extremely anti-j6, but 22 years seems like a nice hefty sentance to me

They're fascists - the rules exist exclusively to protect them, and subjugate those they don't like.

They play by the rules - it's just their own rules that boil down to toddler-tier "I win."

I'm glad the fuckasauruses are turning into foundoutasauruses.

Some people are too dangerous to be allowed to roam freely. Rapists, murderers and insurrectionists are all examples.

I saw numerous videos where these guys went out of their to beat the living shit out of blm protestors (not rioters), while calling people antifa - who clearly weren’t, in broad daylight, and nothing happened to them. I can only imagine if I were one of their many victims, that seeing this would be give me some great pleasure. Especially since the “fuck around and find out” rallying call was the thing they said as the brutalized people who were simply protesting brutality.

I don't think it's helpful to society to joke about prison rape. We shouldn't make light of such atrocities.
