    12 jurors will decide his fate after reviewing evidence during his trial which will probably happen next year.

      Unless he’s the next Republican president and pardons himself, I wouldn’t be so sure that he’ll be pardoned.

        Trump has such a large fanatical following that it’s almost certain the next Republican president will use a Trump pardon as a poker chip for gaining party support on whatever plan he needs pushed.

        So personally I think it’s almost certain Trump will be pardoned.

        But it’s possible he could die in prison before that happens.
