Oh no another warning, I bet he is crying spray tan all over his my pillow tonight boy I tell ya.
Yeah, but this is day two of a criminal procedure. To date, Trump has only FAFO'd on civil trials. Shit's about to get real different if he plays around in the same way.
This shit has actual consequences.
Press (x) to doubt
Wake me up when he faces actual consequences
You should probably set an alarm if you have shit to do.
"Alexa, set an alarm for 'fucking never.'"
the cheering will get you up when it happens.
People have been saying shit like this since before he was elected.
A warning and belittlement. "Talk to your client". The godfather wasn't addressed.
Man, the number of judges who won't actually put Trump in jail for violating court orders is longer than my dick.
Is it a short list, or is the prining reeeaaaally small?
Sorry, couldn't help myself. I'm sure you have a perfectly adequate dick. Have a great day.
I like the fact that you're too nice to let yourself get away with a dick joke without apologizing for it
I.....am Canadian....it's a psychological affliction. Sorry.
You monster! You didn't say that in both English and French! Someone call the RCMP!
It's fine, I live in Scotland, it'll take time for extradition to go through.
It is a good thing. A very good thing.
Sorry
Nah, I'm sure there's at least one
Cheers. I hope you're right.
I'm sure your dick is at least one judge long.
You may be right. Only time will tell.
Ohh, how about rebuking him with a big ass fine for violating that gag order though?
There is at least a fair chance the orange butthole will face real consequences if he breaks the rules again ... although I will admit I have only a little hope of it happening.
🤞🤞🤞
Hahahahahahahqhah ha haha
Real chances this time everybody!
If he breaks the rules again
Everyone knows the time-honored "50 strikes and you are out" rule of legal proceedings
I wish it were as low as 50.
So fines, thats a civil trial. This is a criminal trial. He can get hauled to the slammer.
Not at all outside the scope of the trial. Actually, the prosecutors asked for a 3k fine. Within the judge’s ability to do. You can be penalized for violating any judge’s order in any trial.
Edit: I actually only read like one article about the trial today. Yesterday they requested $3k fine during hearings yesterday and I didn’t see any headlines about Trump being fined today, so I am assuming it didn’t happen.
Sure. But he can go to the slammer.
I’m not holding my breath until it actually happens.
This whole trump business has shined a studio spotlight on how blatantly corrupt the US justice system is.
If you had some random dude on trial for fraud or theft of government property, he’d be in jail that night with a bond so high no bond company would touch it with a ten mile pole. If that same dude then threatened jury members during selection, he’d already have a trial date for tampering with the jury.
But trump is a rich boy and a former president, so he gets to walk free and threaten all the jurors he wants, with only his lawyers getting a stern talking to. It’s a joke. The wealthy have long been protected from the legal system by the legal system, and this whole trump fiasco has only highlighted how blatant it is. He said the quiet part out loud back in 2016 when he said he could shoot a man on 5th avenue and walk away. He knew the game, and knew nothing he did would earn him real consequences due to his wealth and status.
Until I see him in cuffs on his way to a jail, I’m just going to assume the system is working exactly how it was designed to.
You throwing cold water on my fever dream of Trump having to beg for Ambien because he only has five packs of ramen.
I think every sane person in this country wants to see someone held accountable for their actions.
Unfortunately, we’ve also seen the wealthy and powerful get away with, or at the worst, get slaps on the wrist, for everything from fraud to rape.
The are zero real consequences for this conduct, so he will not change his behavior. The rest of us would have been fined and jailed for contempt over far less.
Fuck yeah! He was sternly rebuked! The law is not to be messed with. I'm sure his lawyers just made an oversight in telling him the rules and now there will be no more shenanigans.
His local campaign stop in Harlem allows him to make a serious play at winning his native state despite its heavily Democratic lean.
Uhhh... Maybe leave this level of political interpretation to a domestic paper, Guardian.
Wait, the author is American? Wow.
Also, click through to the link even if you don't like to read stories before commenting. There's an image halfway through of a brown bodega owner looking very concerned about Trump being in his store and holding on to his young son tightly. It very well might have been a great interaction with one of the odd minority Trump supporters, but damn it if the image doesn't tell a whole story.
“They want law and order ... every week they’re being robbed,” Trump said of businesses in New York, as he tried to compare his prosecution with the state of New York streets. “You know where the crime is? It’s in the bodegas.”
Lol. This bodega is in a sleepy part of Manhattan with immigrants and young families. The major "crimes" are rent prices and a few losers stealing ho-hos.
Donald is one of the people robbing businesses. Oh, my mistake, it's not real crime if you defraud contractors.
Damn Trump stole ho-hos? I guess I can see that since this trial is about paying ….
If there's anywhere Trump is going to get the majority of votes, it's Harlem. After all, we know how much black people love him.

I assume Trump has secret service wherever he goes especially during campaign season, there is literally snipers and armed gunmen all around when they show up
Maybe the press could help with this by not releasing personally identifiable information of jurors during their coverage of the trial
Whaaaaaat? But think of all the ad revenue they would lose out on?
So what's the plan with this case?
Kicked up to SCOTUS for them to sit on?
6 month deliberation over which juror likes Taylor swift more?
Or maybe just I nice simple $10 penalty payable in 4 years or something
