This is not a criminal case, those come next year.
I agree in general, although there’s no chance of jail time in this case.
Technically if he keeps breaching the gag order…
I suppose that’s true, you’re right. Technically.
Unfortunately this is a civil trial, so no chance of jail here. That will have to wait for one of his many criminal trials…
I’m just hoping that the judge imposes such harsh monetary penalties that Trump has to sell Mar-a-Lago. Or better yet, have it seized and sold at auction for a pittance.
It’s not so much a matter of if he is guilty or not by this point, but how much guilt is he responsible for.
I think the broader public and Trump might miss the nuisance. But it means the difference of carving up parts of an empire to all of the Trump empire.
Trump can easily pay a fine, but I don’t think he is going to recover from losing the Trump Brand.
Which is why I am so flabbergasted by why Trump and his lawyers are being hostile on the witness stand.
