Former President Trump criticized the judge presiding over his 2020 election case, just days after she warned him against making any “inflammatory statements” that could intimidate witnesses or prejudice the jury pool.

In a statement posted overnight on Truth Social, Trump called U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan “highly partisan” and “very biased & unfair.”

“She obviously wants me behind bars,” he added.

    John Dean served prison time in a military facility for Watergate, and he was just Nixon’s White House counsel. We have the means to imprison a former president outside of the existing federal prison system.

      I think house arrest is the most rational and likely outcome but a military like facility is possible too, I hadn’t considered that and am not sure what it would look like. Probably the most secure outcome
