Guarantee he's weighing "gently caress, am I going to have to remand a former president?" versus "if this was anyone else he'd 100% be remanded"

It's good to be a G
The judge should make one of the secret service guys carry around a gag order swear jar and every time trump violates it he has to put :10bux: in the jar.

Any chance they are meeting in the judges chambers? Is that a thing or just dumb law and order stuff.

It's just been almost a half hour past when they said they be back.

I've broken the rules on this site many times, but the thought of complaining to a mod about it is just so drat pathetic

The angriest I ever got over a probe wasn't because of the probe, but because I couldn't go back and edit the post to say "yeah, that joke needed more time to cook, sorry to everyone I pissed off because of it" until after it was over.

Maybe Merchan is looking for precedent NOT to jail turmpf.

Has anyone ever pushed possible contempt charges this far? Is it possible Merchan doesn't want to set a precedent for letting people slide?

Honestly it's not a bad bet that he thinks getting sent to jail will be a boon for his campaign

And he may well be right

I think we all agree that yes, there’s a segment of the population that would get pretty fired up if he got jailed.

But what he needs more than anything is to swing moderates, and I doubt a night in jail for basically menacing potential jurors is going to bring too many of those over to his side.

This whole thing is a debacle for him, and I think being jailed makes it even worse overall.

JUST FUCKING TAKE OFF ALREADY, SHIT

Love how in Trump’s Truth he’s making sure to include that Merchan’s first name is JUAN.

I swear Trump is probably some boomer that goes to Denny’s every day that just somehow won the lottery.

As soon as recess happened it stopped dropping and seems to be just oscillating until the judge comes back.

People not in his cult aren't going to think "got jailed for contempt for violating his gag order on not threatening jurors during his hush money to a porn star case" is endearing

Whether or not it would be a boon for his campaign he would raise a shitload of money from it. Rubes would be donating like there's no tomorrow.
