What Donald Trump can expect when he gets to prison

Oh boy! Stick a fork in this guy! He can make all the noise — and talk all the smack he wants. Donald Trump has not been elected to a second term. And I’m tingling with delight. Even more so than his greatest detractors. And there’s a good reason:

I spent a year in federal prison for underreporting my income taxes. And I’m quite sure that my crime pales in the face of Donald Trump’s. The President paid seven hundred and fifty dollars in federal income tax for 2017? And he expects us to believe that his return is on the up and up? Get the fuck outta here! I don’t like Donald Trump. Everything about him makes me want to throw up! It’s time he served the time others have been doing for him.

Let’s say just for fun that he hasn’t broken any tax laws. Does anybody believe that Trump operated in a vacuum while all his henchmen went to prison? Like Michael Cohen paid off Stormy Daniels without Trump’s direction or knowledge. Yeah, right!

Or Paul Manafort dealt with the Russians while Trump was oblivious to all his campaign manager’s activities? Gimme a break!

Now that Trump hasn’t been elected and he can’t dodge all those statutes of limitations that would have expired had he been re-elected by the time he left office? I figure the Donald is crapping his tighty whiteys about now!

So what’s Trump in for when he arrives in prison? Hey! Who knows better than me — a guy who served a year for a financial crime — and cellied with his former campaign manager?

I’m going to compare Paul Manafort’s prison experience as I saw it with Trump’s prospective staycation behind bars. There are two very different realities with two men who on the face of it, you would think would have similar prison experiences.

First, Manafort was actually a pretty tough guy. I watched gangbangers get in his face to test his mettle. He looked down on one guy (Paulie’s 6'2") and responded to “you Trump’s boy?” with “I’m just like you. I’m from the streets.” And he didn’t blink when he said it! After that, nobody fucked with him. He was just another criminal — except for the republican white-collar criminals in the unit. They crawled so far up his ass it was nauseating.

Trump will have that same subset kissing his ass. But when it comes to facing down the threatening element, I don’t think he’ll measure up to his campaign manager in that arena. My impression of Trump is that he’s a schoolyard bully — or a “keyboard warrior,” as Anthony Scaramucci called him on Bill Maher’s show. Which is to say I think Trump is more talk than action. He’ll have some scary moments if prison officials choose to place him in general population.

Second, Manafort was respected by inmates for not cooperating with prosecutors. Or in the vernacular…Paulie didn’t rat his boss out! Criminals despise snitches — even if half of them have cooperated surreptitiously themselves. Paulie was not a snitch. Big props right there.

Trump has been letting other people take his rap. That’s tantamount to snitching. Prisoners won’t like him for that. He’s letting other people do time for his crimes? Not cool.

And finally, there’s the issue of how prisoners view Donald Trump. A great percentage of the federal prison population is men of color. And I can tell you that by and large, prisoners of color didn’t like Donald Trump where I was.

I remember one white inmate watching CNN and commenting on what a loser Obama was — and how great Trump is. I thought the black guys were gonna kick his ass right then and there.

So get ready President Trump! Prison’s not going to be the walk in the park for you that it was for Paulie. You’re going to get what’s coming to you in spades. And I for one, can’t wait!
