Good luck getting them to turn on their living God.
I mean, these specific people are facing jail time, and serious economic hardship as a direct result of the actions of Trump. If there is a cohort to turn on him, I don't think you'll find a stronger set to try and turn. They have suffered material damages.
But they aren't. We're seeing higher legs bend, but not the grunt force that made it possible. I'd imagine if the sentences were more accurate, say 20 years for treason on top of everything. We might see it. But they're getting slaps on the wrist and will be out in time to see the next president in the White House.
The potential for a big pay out or not having to sell /mortgage your house because you played stupid games and won stupid prizes on behalf of president Bonespurs might be enough for some of them.
Also, you don't have to convince all of them, simply enough of them to form a class.
Yeah it’s not a bad thought, but these are people who are unwilling and/or incapable of using reason or logic to understand their situation. The odds of them getting a class-action together are fantastically low.
Just need a money grubbing lawyer to see a payday and consider taking it in. You don't need to convince all of them, just enough to form an agreived class.
