To be fair, I don’t think the gag order included attacking the judge
He will get another stern talking to and he will definitely shut up this time.
Or else the legal system will coddle him even softer. He can’t possibly get away with it this time!

Unfortunately, both history and the GOP disagree with you.
That is indeed the point of my post.
The sarcasm can be a bit hard to pick through text at times.
The order very intentionally did not cover the judge. That would’ve set up a pretty easy First Amendment appeal, and I seem to recall that already coming up in a different case.
I have no idea how the judge’s daughter factors in. I could see a variety of Mafia-inspired laws against it, but I don’t know if any actually apply here.
