10th time 1k in fines....wtf....double standard. You, me and my next door neighbor would be locked up by now. My God. What a joke our criminal system is

[@Marie-kj3xf]

Are you kidding me? If you were charged in the first place you’d be out of your mind, you would scream from the rooftops that the JUDGE in your case wears the other team’s jersey.

[@herballycorrect]

If you jail him you guarantee his re-election. Try and keep up!

[@snakeplissken7671]

If the New York justice system WASN'T a joke, this would not be a trial in the first place. Paying Stormy Daniels is not even a crime. Paying her with the funds he paid her out of is also not even a crime. There is no crime. They're trying to claim that he didn't "label the payment properly" when none of the given labels for the payment would have been considered adequate to cover it. So they would have claimed it was mislabeled no matter what. Much like how they kept trying to send Trump boxes of documents that he didn't want, then had his house raided for those exact same boxes, then corrupt prosecutors took folders labeled "Classified" and laid them on top of the stuff in the boxes to pretend like the box was full of folders labeled "classified" when they weren't. Totally fabricated evidence. All of these court cases are a sham, which is why his poll numbers keep going up. Everyone is seeing how dishonest the democrats are and more and more people are leaving that party.

lol the deeper in the hole he gets, his poll numbers go up.

[@reggiedunlop5167]

No way I'd lock him up. I'd make him sit in an anteroom for the rest of the trial, though!

Nothing but finger wagging and piddly little fines. Enough! Toss him in jail.

Stop making Trump the headline news, that would drive him crazy.

Do his farts qualify as in contempt?

[@LipstickNTrees]

I'm sure his depends being filled could be considered contempt.

[@jazziered142]

It blows my mind that he's not in jail at this time. If it were you and I, we would be. It's not right.

[@bobconrad6714]

The average citizen wouldn't be charged for this nonsense.

[@glennbartlett416]

That's right no one is above the law, which is why all the other presidents should be in jail - including this judge. And Trump will be a good judge himself and send CNN to jail to start with along with all the 100s of 1000s of druggies murderers n rapist's flouting across the southern border, unless you would like otherwise.

[@alanmckay7040]

Except for Hillary Clinton who did exactly the same as what Trump is being accused of in 2016 and got let off with a $100,000 fine instead of 31 criminal charges like Trump.

[@ronaldholthaus622]

Biden is above the law

Kangaroo court! Jail! They don’t jail the thugs on the streets, but jail Trump for speaking. Great job liberals
