I've never seen the potential penalty he's facing in this one.

Does anybody know?

Is there a likelihood of a conviction resulting in a prison sentence, and if so, what would be a reasonable expectation of the length?
I don't mean the maximum penalty if convicted on all counts, which doesn't seem to ever happen, but a realistic sentence.

Iirc there are no minima for prison time for any of these charges, so it’s possible that even if convicted, that man might serve no time behind bars for this trial.

However, a creative judge might fine him nine figures, then assign him a few thousand hours of community service cleaning toilets in a remote location in Alaska. One can hope.

Not this trial but link below lays it out for the Mar a Lago documents trial that will some day produce a guilty verdict. Though not this one it gives insight into how they turn a subjective decision into a defensible semi-quantitative judgement.

This one goes over how a judge (Judge Canon but that's another story) uses established criteria to set the terms of the sentence (22 years or 10 years, depending on how the judge decides) that Trump will face once he's convicted. Or not.
