Sounds good to me...
The Hill
Former President Trump told his supporters in a fundraising email Wednesday that he could face up to 561 years in prison after the Justice Department (DOJ) indicted him in connection with his efforts to overturn the 2020 election. “With Crooked Joe’s corrupt DOJ having unlawfully INDICTED yours truly yet again, reports indicate that I could now face a combined 561 YEARS in prison from the Left’s witch hunts,” Trump said in the email. Defendants are rarely sentenced to the maximum prison term for all crimes for which they are convicted, and terms for different crimes can be served consecutively, limiting the total time a defendant spends in prison.
Others add another 80 years...
Politico
Donald Trump now faces 78 felony charges across three criminal cases — many of them carrying the potential for hefty prison time. If Trump were convicted on all counts and given the maximum statutory penalty for each one, he would face a whopping 641 years in prison. And that’s not counting additional criminal charges he may face in Georgia, where the district attorney in Fulton County may be on the verge of indicting him this month. (snip) Trump himself has even touted the threat of a significant prison sentence in recent fundraising emails, with his campaign and a PAC saying in late July, “While my primary opponents continue to take cheap swipes at me as the Department of Justice plots ways to throw me in JAIL for up to 561 YEARS, I am asking YOU to stand with me at this pivotal moment in the election.”
The grift goes on...
The Independent
Within two hours after he was criminally charged for his failed efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, a political action committee connected to Donald Trump’s campaign sent out two fundraising emails to supporters. One message – sent from the “Official Trump Store” – advertises a “limited-edition” commemorative “I Stand with Trump” T-shirt that includes the date of the latest indictment against him. (snip) Supporters who pledge $47 to his campaign will receive the shirt “for FREE,” according to the message.

ABC News
The U.S. Capitol Police force is prepared for former President Donald Trump’s arraignment on Thursday, Chief Thomas Manger told reporters. "We're prepared for tomorrow," Manger said during a press briefing on Wednesday. "We're prepared for whatever might happen." Manger said USCP has been in talks with its partner agencies, including the Metropolitan Police Department, Park Service and Secret Service. There are no plans to put up fencing around the Capitol complex, Manger said.
I hope when this is all over they make him pay court costs...
