This is the kind of thing future generations will look back at and say
"Wtf why did they let him get away with this shit? Were they stupid?"
Current generations are saying it now.
It's like he wants the contempt order so he can claim a mistrial...
He wants to tant the jury pool as well. He wants to make the judge do some drastic so he can have something to appeal.
Like I keep saying they are trying not give him ammunition to appeal on. And I keep saying he going keep appealing no mater what so hold him to the same standards as everyone else. But they won't.
He definitely wants to get thrown in jail. He thinks he can fundraise a lot better from there. Too bad he's unlikely to get sent to Rikers like his CFO was.
The judge should fine him and increase the fines accordingly. Of course you or I would be in jail immediately, but that would play into the orange mobster's hand in this scenario.
He's lived such a privileged life, I wonder what a week in a cell/jail would do to him.
I think it would change his life, even if it gave him campaign material for when he got out.
I wonder if it would rock his confidence enough to make a difference.
He ain't going to Rikers though. Best case he goes to country club. Or house arrest. Or take away his phone privileges.
He would love that.
His constant spew of misinformation on the firehose setting has got to bite him in the ass eventually. I hope.🤞
I hear Vietnam has an excellent way to curtail "inflammatory" speech that works well on billionaires.
He’s a broke b. though. Owned and paid by foreign interests.
