The order also explicitly limits Trump’s ability to attack witnesses or his co-defendants, including on social media.

    Pretty sure if you violate pre trial conditions, a judge can issue a bench warrant and lock you away.

      My question isn’t what the law says they can do but what they’re actually willing to do.

      While Georgia has said that Trump is going to get a mugshot, his three other arrests have decided not to do the mugshot, not to do the perp walk, not to this, not to that. He’s getting special treatment, and we don’t realistically know where that’s going to end. And with current law, former presidents get lifetime protection of the secret service, so there is a practicality question for if Trump is locked up.

      I’m hoping that the trials bring out the truth, right now I believe the truth to be that he’s guilty, and I hope that if he keeps violating the terms of the courts, which he seems deadset on doing, that he’s put in jail for that while the trials are ongoing. But I don’t necessarily think they will do that even if, on paper, they can.
