    Really, given that he violated his gag order multiple times and threatened the judge, the jury, and the witnesses, Merchan should absolutely give him some prison time, and point out during sentencing that simply keeping his mouth shut and respecting the process would’ve resulted in some probation and community service. Most first-time offenders don’t get prison time for this, but Trump couldn’t stop running his mouth.

    Two years would be a just punishment, I think.

      Good that you mentioned this. After all that you listed, he still whined that he was being victimized and how he couldn’t speak to defend himself. He’s doing the same thing with the requests to lay off the personal attacks on kamala and stick to policy from his side. He is indeed scum of the earth, playing the victim. Except scum is nicer.
