There is 2 different justice systems, 1 for Trump, other for everyone else. Crazy

[@lovelyandsmartcommentator5130]

Why are the judges hesitant?

[@mikewilcox9348]

Because they know the charges are bogus.

[@user-jz7bw6yf9s]

He can't talk about anyone but everyone gets to slam him. He should be allowed to defend himself and not just as the Former President of the United States but as a citizen of America.

"none of us, few of us, have been standing before a judge before. I never have really, I don't think." How on earth does the news anchor not know if he's stood before a judge before?

Sorry, Are you watching it. Biden hasn’t said a word, which is smart move on his part. Trump is certainly scary. Omg.

The best thing would be to penalize him with jail time, but to be served at the end of the trial, which the judge could do. If he doesn't shut up, then he could stay in jail to November or when hell freezes over.

The Judge does not want Trump to talk about the Judge and his daughter's part of being VERY involved with the Democrats and ALL the money his daughter is making by working with Top people in the Democratic Party.

NONE of the judges in these cases have any guts. If you want to stop **45 from violating the gag order, fine him the max for every violation up to today. If that doesn't deter him (it won't), give him 1 day in solitary. If he does it again after , give him 5 days. I GUARANTEE he will stop after that 6th day behind bars.....maybe even the 1st.
