As the delay strategy for all but one of his multiple criminal cases by Trump has succeeded beyond any reasonable doubt, the MAGA GOP will formally declare Trump their nominee for President in July.
None of the three more serious cases are likely to be decided before the November election.
From the extensive media coverage, it is evident that voters know Trump is guilty in the Federal cases involving the coup attempt to overturn the election and the classified documents case.
Trump will pardon himself if elected in November.
Many media articles elucidate the now desperate situation for Trump. Either he is elected or he goes to jail.

This second prompt–written before Trump clinched the GOP nomination–is from the UK, seemingly sounding dumbfounded that such a person could possibly be our Presidential candidate.
As his legal battles grow more complex by the day, a serious question has emerged: what happens if Mr Trump wins the nomination and campaigns for the general election as a convicted criminal?
That possibility, in turn, raises another simpler question: could the 45th president of the United States go to prison?
Between his 91 felony counts, Mr Trump faces a total of roughly seven centuries in total jail time, spread between dozens of various charges of differing seriousness.

Thus, it is obvious that not only is he manically trying to take authoritarian power by winning a second term, but he is trying to stay out of jail and save his family business.
While his delay strategy is working for now, Trump stands convicted of crimes costing him potentially fines of half a billion dollars.
Trump’s campaign donors have contributed millions to the payment of his legal fees, many of those fees due before the election. So, his lawyers clearly have a vested stake in his re-election.
The horrifying uniqueness of this situation must by now be obvious to all knowledgeable observers! At this point only greed or a willingness by those GOP members of Congress with a deep hatred of our country would allow anyone to vote for Trump. Ask Liz Cheney!
