> sentenced to seven months

Which he will do exactly 0 months because it's a suspended sentence. Still crazy but nowhere close to "7 months of prison for a meme"

PS: Didn't the US just deport people to a foreign prison because they had tattoos ?

That’s actually pretty close to “7 months of prison for a meme”.
But it's not, words have meaning. Why did Trump say France should "FREE Marine Lepen" ? She isn't in prison, he probably read "sentenced to XX years" and assumed she was.

Quotation marks are usually used if you quote someone. Not if you make up additional things in your head that a person supposedly said.

"sentenced to seven months for posting a meme", you're the one omitting words and implying things my dude
