   @peterbutler the fun part of 2 will be the failure for the press to examine all the previous polls where Republicans said they wouldn't vote for him if convicted. They never meant it, and will keep changing the line

     We don’t know yet how Trump’s conviction will impact the November election

     We can be pretty sure of 2 things, though

     1) Tomorrow, the RNC will report Trump’s biggest fundraising day ever, the media will run with that story, and no one will follow up if/when official election filings contradict it

     2) A GOP-sponsored poll will show that Trump's conviction will not lose him any votes, and the media will run with that too
