By going to jail?

Nope. This is NOT the issue keeping families up at night worrying about the economy, crime, and out of control war coming under the faux presidential leadership of a senile old man

So write him a letter.

Those of us with powers of discernment recognize that our out-of-control deep state is the most important issue — upstream of the concerns you mention — and unless it’s dealt with forcefully, and soon, our America will cease to exist. And then all the issues YOU hold to be “more important” will become ten times worse overnight.

Yes, he is. I think he means it but I think Trump is pushing Merchan until he snaps but Merchan is the one really bluffing. No way Merchan puts Trump in jail, it would be a logistical nightmare for the city/state. Merchan will continue fining Trump and will lose credibility, a la the Boy Who Cried Wolf, every time he does.

I think it was an interview he did and it seemed pretty benign.

The problem is that they have painted themselves into a corner and do not know how to get out.

Trump is like red hot steel in a forge mill. He goes in red hot is hammered and comes out stronger. Trump has made incredible sacrifices as president, financially. He has been hit even harder as an ex president financially. He is doing this for our nation, our constitution and us. He is forged steel.

“”I think it was an interview he did and it seemed pretty benign.””

I thought I’d run into what actually upset the judge this morning but I didn’t see or hear a thing all day...maybe I’ll catch some of Cuomo later tonight...I really like his show - a different Chris Cuomo..Dan Abrams has a good show right after his and then Ashley Banfield. They spent all their time late last week on the protests...I think News Nation is onto something - their news is pretty good during the day also.

No one really knows.

For some time ex Secret Service agent Dan Bongino has said the prisons would be totally disrupted to give agents logistics to protect him. They are under obligation to set up agents close and far wherever Trump goes, including if in prison. Really difficult to do.

There is a threat of a bill already brought up in Congress to deny protection to “any” ex President. Thus, setting him up for getting killed.

Another is to use an abandoned prison (apparently two of them have already been scouted out) re-opened for just one prisoner-—Trump.

Another is a “holding cell” made up of a court building room down the hall which will de declared a “prison” with Trump held for a few days.

RE: When he wins in November, the Deep State will JFK him.


I am praying for him daily as are many others.

Have gotten around to watching the Oliver Stone JFK Revisited (2022) (around 6 hours on dvd, 1.5 hours on another)——not the movie, discussions and detailed evidence and old films.)

I believe the Left will set up Dealey Plaza II rather than allow our side to win by voting.

May God protect Trump and us.

The deep state is in for a rude awakening.

You send him a letter and congratulate him for letting his intemperate addiction to social media posting his butthurt about judges and jurors get him the incarcerated martyrdom he seeks. Real heroic stuff, that.

How many days would a simple gag-order violation entail?

I'd put the judge in jail for a year if he ordered this unheard of decision.
