Trump will lose. He did promise to pardon all the Jan 6th criminals, but he does lie a lot. We'll never know.
You have to be careful listening to Trump's actual words and remember that he likes to play games with them. During the fraud trial he was confront about the deed he signed which talked about the word "intending" his answer was---just because you intend to do something it doesn't mean you will.
At one point when discussing J6 prisoners he tossed in the word "many".
Trump didn't specify how many of the rioters he would pardon, though he said last year that "I am inclined to pardon many of them. I can't say for every single one, because a couple of them, probably they got out of control."
And we absolutely know for a fact that for Trump, "many" can be anything any random number he chooses.
Idk if it was the rally that I was reading about but I know one of the J6 twitter people commented that the prisoners were pissed off at Trump because he said he'd release the ones
wrongfully convicted. And my guess is they picked up on that "wrongfully convicted" because they already got screwed with the money from the exact same song Trump is playing at his rallies. They had created the choir and done the song themselves and then wanted to add Trump and publish the song. What the J6 choir understood was the money raised would go to them and/or their families to either help with legal stuff, or family needs.
Imagine their surprise when very little or no money made it's way to them. And that's because of this little detail in the agreement--
The project was reportedly organized by conservative commentator and former Fox News host Ed Henry,[1] American record executive LJ Fino [7] and their record label Mailman Media, INC. who have stated that royalties will be donated to family members of people incarcerated for participating in the Capitol attack. The recipients will be vetted to ensure funds only flow to families of people who did not assault law enforcement officers during the attack.
I don't know who all the members are, but I can tell you many if not all have conviction for violence in their charges. The choir director is Jeff Sabol. He can be heard every night calling out the three minute warning before the group sings the song. These are Jeff Sabol charges:
Jeffrey Sabol, 53, of Kittredge, Colorado, was sentenced to 63 months in prison, 36 months of supervised release, and ordered to pay $32,165.65 in restitution by U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras. Sabol was convicted of three felony charges following a stipulated bench trial before Judge Contreras on Aug. 18, 2023, including obstruction of an official proceeding and aiding and abetting, federal robbery, and assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers with a deadly or dangerous weapon and aiding and abetting.

So when it came money time surprise!!! No soup for you!
Which leads me back to why they were pissed off recently. When he used the term "wrongfully" that puts in a stipulation just like the "did not assault" and the prisoners want nothing LESS than to have him pardon and release 100% of them. So when he doesn't (if he even has the chance) he can just point the words and say--nope sorry, you weren't wrongfully convicted. And at that point he'll have absolutely zero to lose because he'll have already gotten the votes from the friends and family thinking he's going to let them all go. He'll probably not even remember them in the slightest while they sit in prison and say WHAT???? But you said!!!!!
Another Lucy with the football moment for J6.
