Courts traditionally come down very hard on people who start discussing the case in public or denigrating witnesses or (especially) jurors in the press.
TBH Trump has got away with way, way more than you or me would in a court room.
Courts traditionally come down very hard on people who start discussing the case in public or denigrating witnesses or (especially) jurors in the press.That being said the tricky part is proving it, even though they have an edge due to the location of the trial. My opinion is that the Judge is also biased by his one sided gag order and obvious contempt for Trump.
Fair or not, the repercussions of this is far greater than if any of us were violating a gag order. Like I doubt if all us got jailed together, anyone will riot in protest.I have been hearing that for a long time and still waiting. Is it Tuesday the judge is scheduled to rule on Trump's gag order violations? Anybody else would already be in jail. We will see if the judge has any teeth. I keep hoping and have seen only disappointment. Equal under the law has proven so far to be bull shit in my opinion.
You God Damned liberals paralyzed by fears inculcated into you by Trump himself. There isn't going to be any fucking riots.Fair or not, the repercussions of this is far greater than if any of us were violating a gag order. Like I doubt if all us got jailed together, anyone will riot in protest.

His issue is oxygen deprivation from having it shoved up his ass for decades.lol that your brain can't see that Trump is getting extra special treatment from this judge.
seriously: what the fuck happened to your brain?
I see you are taking some heat for this opinion. I believe, however, that as you state it as an opinion you believe that opinion is factual, it is factual as your opinion, not as factual in reality. This is kind of why I think we say we have opinions but some things are simply facts. Now I find your opinion to be little like my own. I frankly do not understand why you say the gag order is one sided. I am not saying it isn't, but that I have not seen that. Can you clarify why you see lopsidedness. Also, are not judges full of personal opinions like the rest of us, excluding me of course, dealing as I do exclusively only in reality? Can you imagine a judge not despising some real criminal who must be judged innocent based on legal technicalities? What makes you think this judge's contempt for Trump, rational as hell that he would feel that way, would impair his capacity to meet out justice appropriately regardless of feelings?That being said the tricky part is proving it, even though they have an edge due to the location of the trial. My opinion is that the Judge is also biased by his one sided gag order and obvious contempt for Trump.
So based on the evidence what do you think?That being said the tricky part is proving it, even though they have an edge due to the location of the trial. My opinion is that the Judge is also biased by his one sided gag order and obvious contempt for Trump.
Thanks for the comic relief. I needed that today.His issue is oxygen deprivation from having it shoved up his ass for decades.

Who is the other side that should be gagged?That being said the tricky part is proving it, even though they have an edge due to the location of the trial. My opinion is that the Judge is also biased by his one sided gag order and obvious contempt for Trump.
Well they're arguing it's Cohen and Stormy. Not like they aren't saying the same thing for the last several years.Who is the other side that should be gagged?
What’s sort of funny is that people like pcgeek think the justice system is biased against Trump when really he has received ENORMOUSLY preferential treatment.Well they're arguing it's Cohen and Stormy. Not like they aren't saying the same thing for the last several years.
Well I think the shoe is going to be on the other foot when the next Repugican President is in office. The orange monkey won't be the last. The next one will do something against Biden just to own the libs. But if the judicial system cooperates, that's another story.What’s sort of funny is that people like pcgeek think the justice system is biased against Trump when really he has received ENORMOUSLY preferential treatment.
Any other defendant would be currently in custody.
So based on the evidence what do you think?
From what I have read about this is that it hinges on the intentions of Trump. It also is not illegal to pay "Hush Money". It is an easy move to say it was to protect his family from embarrassment of the sexual escapades. Also the labeling of this as a legal expense would be an easy mistake if so by an accountant as he was paying his "lawyer" for services.
I'm not a lawyer, but I see significant doubts and holes in this being a conviction. They also have the worse witness' who seems to have a huge axe to grind. The biggest plus for the prosecution is where the trial is being held.
How was the judge biased?
The gag order was a reactive response to trump’s comments.
It would show bias if someone on the prosecution side if they were making comments
I am not aware of any comments the prosecution made
Please post them
I guess we will see in a few weeks / months....
The prosecution witness' (Michael Cohen Etc... ) are free to trash talk all they want. I also believe in the Freedom of speech as do many. I don't see where Trump calling Cohen and Stormy a couple of sleezebags (which many will agree) is endangering him or Stormy.
If you are going to have a gag order gag them all.
But he’s just a parrot for his orange monkey king.Again did you not read and understand the what the gag order entailed.
It was to stop trump from witnes intimidation and going after court staff
Full stop
Trump has been doing press briefings just about after every day of trial
Do you feel it is ok for a defendant to intimidate witnesses?
Do you feel it is ok to trash talk the court assistant/ etc?
You’re correct it is not illegal to pay hush money. What IS illegal is to conceal that hush money payment by falsifying business records. It would not be sufficient to say he was falsifying business records in order to avoid being embarrassed - that would still be a crime.From what I have read about this is that it hinges on the intentions of Trump.

His only hope is a hung jury. His odds of acquittal are essentially zero because the evidence is a slam dunk.A hung jury wouldn't surprise me but he's not getting a not guilty verdict.
The case will be tried again just like Karina Vetrano's was!
