    Total bullshit.

    Trump has been warned ad nauseam in this one case alone. If he’s that unable to follow simple directions… he’s mentally unfit to stand trial.

    Pretending like he needs to get fined for contempt before being locked up is an egregious affront to the justice system.

    Literally no one else would be allowed such leeway; and there is only one code of law- it applies to everyone or it’s a joke.

    That trump was ever allowed to make the judge’s own daughter a victim of terrorism… raise severe questions.

      There is only one code of law that applies to this case and it states that the judge can either impose a fine of maximum 1k for each count or jail the person, so the judge is doing exactly what the code of law allows them to do.

      You’re still not answering the question.

      Jail for the weekend at the risk of seeing him go scot-free OR fines and you’re sure the trial reaches its conclusion?

        You didn’t answer mine but demand I answer yours ? Are you okay with witnesses and jury dying because of the terrorism?

        To answer yours… let me ask another. What happens if the case is lost because of the blatant witness tampering? Same result.

          So you’re ok with Trump just going in jail for the weekend, alright.

          If you think there’s a risk of witness and jury dying then what the fuck do you think will happen if he spends a weekend held in contempt? You think things will calm down after that and his base will go “Yeah, he deserved that”???
