He could use a nice long weekend in jail.

For the legal eagles here, is there a limit on how long the judge can do this for? Can he just leave him there for the rest of the trial? More importantly, does he have the will to do that if it’s allowed?

“Now shut the fuck up and pay attention!” The judge thought to himself.

I so hope he feels like he can absolutely run his mouth in this case. What would happen next would be hilarious

Maybe not. He’s always playing the victim and claiming every prosecution is a witch hunt. He wants pictures of himself in jail to fire up his base and “prove” that he was right.

In his defense, he does have legitimate reasons to be afraid of what will likely happen to him and his family if he puts Trump in jail.

Trump belongs in prison, but I wouldn’t want to be the focus of his mob’s wrath either. Doing one’s duty as an officer of the court isn’t always easy.

And wouldn’t Trumpy just make an emergency appeal to his Supreme Court pals? They’ll just issue a hold to discuss (discussion tentatively scheduled for late 2025) and Merchan’s trial will go into infinite hiatus.

I don’t think contempt works that way. IANAL, but my understanding is that contempt incarceration is immediate and unappealable.

If you’ve fucked up so badly that a judge finds you in contempt, you din’t really have any recourse. Notice how, of all T****’s fines, he’s actually paid the contempt fines? They are unappealable.

I get the feeling he doesn’t fully understand how unpleasant jail will be, even with the jailers kissing his ass.
