No judge wants to be the first to find him in contempt and throw him in jail for the night. Why? I mutter under my breath for a parking ticket and my ass is in jail.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Rules for thee not for me.
Anyone of us plebeians would have been in jail a long time ago.
Or they’d take you down… Six Underground
The ground beneath your feet.
I'm sure the judge and the judge's family's lives would be immediately threatened by his deranged followers. So that could be part of it.
Thens he a fucking coward and they should get a judge who will not give in terrorist. I swear he could probably talk shit to the judges face continue to talk about the jury and they won't do shit.
You just need your own violent cult.
Manhattan prosecutors have separately asked Judge Merchan to fine the former president $1,000 each for a series of social media posts that they argued violate a protective order that bans Mr Trump from publicly attacking witnesses and other parties in the case.
A fine? That'll stop him for sure this time, right?
If the fine would be based the offender's means or calculated as x daily income, he might feel it. Give him a 60 day-fine for a social media post. Or just take a percentage of his assets when he breaks the rules.
It's just a little fantasy of mine. America doesn't seem to have consequences for the ruling/owner class, baring some extreme circumstances.
Specifically t, do it based on reported net worth. Oh, you're a billionaire? Cool, here's a .5% fine for every comment you make. That's 5mill/billion net worth/comment. For those doing the math, that's 18.5m/comment based on his reported worth.
He'll owe Leticia James less in a week.
He does seem to be having money issues
Admonished? Did we get tired of "slammed"?
Don't worry, they used "slammed" too
How about harshly rebuked? I was tired of slammed too
Every time they say slam I immediately put everyone in wrestling tights in my mind.
Slamma jamma ding dong
Edit: why am i getting ratio'd right now? Buncha joyless blowhards on here. I guess you guys like when news stories use "blast" and "slam" constantly?
Casting spells won’t work
Not with that attitude it won't
Can I cast scrunch?
Idk.....can you? If you're asking if you may cast scrunch......then yes.
