A federal judge threatened to kick Donald Trump out of court Wednesday after the former president made repeated comments within earshot of the jury hearing a civil defamation trial against him.
Trump muttered that the case is a “witch hunt,” among other similar comments, according to a lawyer for the writer E. Jean Carroll, who is suing Trump over derogatory comments he made about her while he was president.
The episode prompted a stern rebuke from U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan, who repeatedly tussled with Trump and his lawyers during a testy courtroom session Wednesday morning.
“Mr. Trump has the right to be present here. That right can be forfeited, and it can be forfeited if he is disruptive, which is what has been reported to me,” the judge said.

I hope for nothing contagious: his sycophants would deliberately infect themselves to be more like him and end up causing a rabies pandemic
I can see how that would be bad, but somehow I just can’t stop feeling like that would benefit the world so much more than it would harm it.
Until you get good people dying of rabies
“good people” have nothing to worry about.
“Very fine people” might.
I’d be pretty satisfied with him being accidentally fired into space
“nobody has ever been shot out of a cannon, ever, into space… No, never! The demmacrats don’t wanchyou you to know about it because it makes them mad. I’m the bravest president, everyone is saying so”
