You’re arguing over trivial semantics, my guy. What’s the point? He’s a felon, there was a conviction, and he is awaiting sentencing. Hence CONVICTED FELON.
I don’t know where you’re getting that though. He is technically and really a convicted felon. You can say it and he can’t sue you (yet. No promises if he wins and declares himself god-king)
I heard it from a legal scholar on a podcast the other day who was very clear it’s a small but real technicality, but unfortunately i can’t find anything because it’s pages and pages of headlines announcing he’s the first convicted felon president.
Either way it doesn’t matter. I just thought it was interesting. I only hope he gets a dozen more convictions lol dude’s a criminal and he deserves that and more.
I agree! And I’ve considered saying it a few times, but I don’t really understand the reasoning behind it and I figured better to not bother than to “um, akchually” this one. 😅
He has been convicted but technically he is not a “a convicted felon” yet. It’s just a technicality. He’s a convicted felon to me already lol

Read the rest of the thread. I’d hardly call it arguing lol dude’s a crook

God-King-Emperor*, you fucking snowflake peasant.
You got me, I’m both accustomed to a rough peasant life and fragile to the touch like a snowflake. It feels nice to finally be understood

LegalEagle said the same thing in the Nebula version of their video on the subject, but it’s a hair that really isn’t worth splitting.
I just found it interesting 🤷♂️
