The Gift Of Gag
May 9, 2024
Judge Juan Merchan imposed a very specific,
extremely reasonable gag order on Defendant Trump. The judge hoped to curtail
the endless threats to family members of the prosecution team – including his own daughter – and attempts to intimidate witnesses and jurors. No other defendant
would have survived as many warnings to stop defying a gag order without being
placed behind bars.
Merchan finally had to literally lay down the
law and fine Trump to the degree permitted in New York. The $1000/infraction for
ignoring the gag order nine times was obviously pocket-change for a
multi-millionaire like this defendant.
After fining the defendant for violating the
gag order nine times and putting the possibility of being jailed on the table,
the defendant did it again. This time Merchan levied one more $1000 fine and
made it clear that one more infraction would have to mean locking up the
uncontrollable defendant.
The next day Trump
was shaking his head, scowling and audibly cursing while Stormy Daniels was
testifying, causing the judge to once again admonish Trump’s attorney that his
client was potentially intimidating the witness.
Once again, Judge
Merchan is bending over backwards so far that I’m beginning to worry he might
hurt himself
I’m keeping my fingers crossed. My intestines
are already in knots.
Today’s Question For The Day:
How can Trump keep bellowing about being
gagged when won't shut the fuck up?
