We shall see if he will sacrifice as he says...........
Donald Trump: This judge has given me a gag order and said you'll go to jail if you violate it and frankly, you know what, our Constitution is much more important than jail. It's not even close. I'll do that sacrifice any day.

(1,394 posts)Not sure where he is going with this, but he obviously wants to be thrown in jail. Does he know he won't have his phone, his bronzer, his hairstylist, and a metal toilet?

(10,990 posts)TSF needs to be held accountable. His mouth has been the excuse, WTF? Take his phone, makeup, red tie, and all his "meds". Make him share a payphone with the rest of the inmates to call his attorneys.

It's his usual shtick but it's gone from silly to grotesque as the trials continue.

(36,273 posts)that satisfaction or put the jury through that appeal bs. So Merchan will suspend his 'jail' time to keep on with the trial, and if he continues to violate the order, will add on to his sentence after the end of the trial when the verdict is in.
