I am sick of this unhinged thug and the Republicans who slavishly follow him. I feel like I've fallen into a time tunnel and it's 1939 Germany all over again. I am sick of reporters and media who are so dumb, they don't push back on what he says. I am sick of the constant speculation of whether he will obey a gag order or not. The man is incapable of shutting up. The judge knows this. We all know this. The question is what is she going to finally do when he crosses the line...again.

I am confident this judge will deal firmly with violations of her order.

She’ll have to deliver pretty soon. This we know.

She's way ahead of him. Guaranteed.

She's doing the "give 'em enough rope and he'll hang himself" dance...

Tanya, yup, but she gave him all the rope months ago, and now he’s hanging himself, and she wants to just give the attorneys one last shot which is a superficial step on her side before she throws him in jail

Exactly Abbi. That’s why she ordered the attorneys to come in pro and con. Probably tomorrow and she knows her next logical step. She’s anticipating a very strong, pro from the Jack Smith camp, and whatever Trump’s attorneys say she will side with Smith and Company, and put Trump in the slammer. The bleating will not stop. He’s going to have a few repeat visits to jail.

Lock him up! That’s what she should do. That might shut him up.

"Lock him up! Lock him up!"

Say it with me, now....."Lock him up! Lock him up!"

Mutiny on the ship ( in this case the ship of state) requires walking the plank and even keel hauling.. maybe even being hoisted on a yard arm.. as trump would go on to say tho, “ didn’t mean that in a bad way”... “everyone is saying that, i hear everyone saying it” ...

From your lips to God's ears.

Chutkan set the stage to throw him in jail. She gave him every ounce of room, including requesting the attorneys submit briefs pro and con. He’s going to go berserk again before morning - 6 or 7 am eastern. He’s just warming up with his latest spew. If the attorneys show up in court in the morning, to present their cases to Judge Chutkan, she will do as she gave herself the latitude to do: order him to jail.

It’s a small step but the second defeat of Jordan is a relief, again.
