How absolutely new do you have to be to believe that he’d redefine the term for anyone but himself? The stigma will persist because it’s part of an enforced social order, he will avoid it the way he’s avoided the rest of enforced social order.

I would need VERY hard evidence before I'd believe there are Trump supporters who didn't also buy into "tough on crime" - right up until it interfered with the way they want to vote. This lattice of justifications to overwrite cognitive dissonance is the mechanism behind Overton windows shifts.

I agree with several commenters here that being white is necessary for being excused for a felony, but I think it is not sufficient. Media would not be taking this tack if Bernie or Hillary were convicted of multiple felonies. I think Trump being a white bully is the key.
