2024 US Presidential Election

So, on the hush money trial Trump has, what will be the punishment should Trump lose? (Which I bet he will) will he have to pay anything?

This is criminal trial, not a civil one. Any money he has to pay will be in the form of fines to the court. He could also face a maximum of four year in prison for each count (there is no mandatory minimum.

So, he could pay nothing and serve no jail time at all, up to a maximum fine of $170 000 and 136 years in prison if convicted on all 34 counts in the indictment.

My guess is that he’ll be hit with the maximum monetary fine, receive no prison sentence, and his business licenses in the state will be suspended. He’s much more likely to be locked up for contempt than for falsifying his business records.
