Trump says it would be a ‘great honor’ to be jailed for violating gag order

[Anti Globalist]

OMG who TF cares at this point.

The system is rigged. Welcome to the 20th century, everyone.

Trump promised to burn some of this nonsense to the ground. He didn't. He hired people who were responsible for it.

Now it's biting him in the rear.

Screw him.

What’s funny is that Trump could easily burn this whole system down if he wanted to. As a former president, he has access to information and secrets that could easily bring the Deep State to its knees. Instead he won’t use ANY of it this election cycle because he wants to protect the system.

You wish.

I know you do because I want it back too. If that were where I was at right now, I'd kiss the ground.

How about you, [MENTION=3169]Anti Federalist[/MENTION]. Want the 20th Century back?

Shit...like you have to ask?

 

[Anti Federalist]

Why does Trump keep doing this to himself? He need to just shut the fuck up and take the cases seriously if he doesn't want to die in prison.

He wants to be a martyr.

He has said he'd be willing to go to prison over this.

There's the continuing Trump saga and there's the issue of how in the hell did it ever come to be that a judge can take away anyone's first amendment rights? Short of threats to kill someone, why shouldn't any defendant speak freely?

Gag rules started in the US Capital in the 1830s.

They were applied to, surprise surprise, those groups and people arguing against the abolition of slavery, after the pro slavery majority "tabled" petitions that were arriving from abolitionist states in New England and the North.

Nothing new under the sun.

Based on legal precedent, I think what is happening to Trump is grossly unconstitutional, especially considering that he is in the middle of a campaign, and "lawfare" is a legitimate and valid campaign issue.

Yet no court is moving agaisnt Biden or Hunter Biden....

That all needs to go. If it's not taken up as a court case, in order to overturn anything previous, it needs to be ignored, just as Trump is doing. A defendant should never have their first amendment rights restrained. It looks like Trump could be jailed over this. That would be interesting.

The whole thing's asinine. What he's charged with isn't even illegal.

This joke trial was designed from the start to go down in flames. They even built in some nepotism to help it fail more spectacularly in the end.

$#@!...like you have to ask?

No, like I wanted an excuse to post a pic of a Dreyfus art deco design.

We're learning a whole new meaning to "party like it's 1999".

The law of averages says he is probably going to end up in jail for something eventually. The list of charges and cases is so long it seems almost impossible he wins them all.

6 of the charges filed by Fani Willis in Georgia have already been thrown out. That cuts the number from 91 down to 85. The 34 charges by Alvin Bragg are really just 1 charge repeated 34 times for different "business record" entries for the same transaction. So 81 - 33 = 48.

 

[CCTelander]

Know what? I don’t give a shit anymore. And since I can’t just change the channel on this dumpster fire of a reality show, wake me up when the people who actually volunteered to fix all this shit actually nut up, pull their thumbs out of their collective asses and do something substantive about it. Till then, I’m old and I need a nap.

The odds are strongly against him. I think it's a given at this point he is going to be convicted in the NY hush money case.

Are judges ever held accountable for unconstitutional orders that get overturned? No? So judges get complete immunity for their actions but not a president. Nice system we got going....

Have you actually read the indictment?

I agree. But I hope you'll excuse me if, of all the double standards that have besieged us during this psyop, the ones they're throwing at Trump are the ones that worry me the least.
