She does look at bit like Melanie

I like that image. The baloney sandwich is perfect.

Where’s the order or transcript? Without them this is just clickbait.

Fine him $100,000 per occurrence thereafter.

Start with $50,000, and double it every time he violates.

Worked with Musk.

While Trump’s latest rant reeks of desperation, to be fair, it could also be fueled by dementia or syphilis.

Throw him in Rikers. The civil war will be worth it.

A ball-gag would be fine.
I see that @jackofalltirades thought of that before me.
Some Alex the Droog therapy, then?

[califdemdreamer]

Trump and Putin respond to only one thing: raw power. Judges need to use it. Dems need to wield it. There is no negotiating with these people.

Do you think tRump’s crowd knows Shakespeare?

@caltg

Seems to me that being found in Contempt of Court is justification for putting him in lockup, at least until he sincerely apologizes to all concerned.

You did write “sincerely apologizes”. That’s a big as if.

@jackofalltirades

I’m fine with him getting a ball gag. Won’t be the first time. I apologize in advance for putting that image out there.

By all means, please make it a ball with sharp spikes & put it in place via the southern passage!

[jinnj]

The problem is that these are individuals who are unredeemably pure evil - incapable of remorse - utterly, relentlessly self-absorbed
… with a ravenous appetite for creating unprovoked agony and suffering for others - infact, they get high on causing pain.

@txlawyer

Monetary sanctions are most likely. Taking away his phone would be a more creative way of addressing the problem. He’s not going to jail.

Take him out on 5th Avenue and …
Well, you fill in the blanks …
but it is what he brags
that he could get away with!

[ajm]

It’s exceedingly rare for anyone to behave as badly in a civil case as Trump is. He also has a known history of deliberately inspiring mayhem.

[ajm]

He’ll continue to skirt it …attack the Judge’s family next and when called out on that attack the Judge’s friends.

[txlawyer]

@pinkie

Judges have a lot of leeway. I know someone jailed for a cellphone video in the courtroom. Phone was seized as well. Of course he lied to the judge as to whether he’d done it.

Oh, so you fail to recognize the difference between violating standing court rules on recording versus spouting off in pubic?

@ajm

It’s exceedingly rare for anyone to behave as badly in a civil case as Trump is.

It’s not. It’s just that nobody gives a shit when some rando dipshit nobody flips out. fat donnie just performatively performs oppression, and the MSM laps it up.

@nop

I think it’d be pretty easy to jail Trump for a week.

You are mistaken. The appellate courts would spring him within 24 hours.

[ajm]

Which he knows and counts on and which magnifies the harm. Trump is not flipping out …he is doing calculated damage.

[txlawyer]

Your boring “Trump always wins” schtick is boring.

[ajm]

No …you are the one always insisting that Trump’s bad behavior is protected. What I am insisting on is that Trump has a pattern of trying to get people hurt and/or making them fear they will be physically harmed. Our court system deals very poorly with the ‘will no one rid me’ scenario.
