Judge Merchan may want to

[choie]

rethink his decision not to place a gag order on trump.

[Samrob]

1. Let him speak. He will go too far. nt

2. As long as he is not putting anyone in danger, there is merit to this approach.

[choie]

3. which is what?

n/t

[Irish_Dem]

4. Do we let him speak so everyone knows he is psychotic and delusional?

Or do we shut him up.

I have been firmly on the side of a gag order because he puts people's lives in danger.
But I was responding to a post suggesting another option.

6. Everyone Will Not Get That Message That Tr**p Is Psychotic & Delusional.....

TFG's followers listening to his speech tonight will buy every word he spoke as gospel truth.

It will cement their loyalty to Tr**p. In that respect - Tr**p's speech tonight was a success in his mind.

7. Yes people will cheer him.

8. Its more like taking marching orders than believing

he speaks the truth. imho.

5. I Think The Judge Blew His Chance....

The judge knows who Tr**p is and how he operates. He should have known that Tr**p was going to go on the attack like he always does and he should have instituted a gag order during the arraignment.

Tr**p - true to his form went on attack and did just that with his Mar-A-Lago speech.

So now if the judge tries to institute a gag order on Tr**p - it would feed right into the speech that Tr**p gave. Theme: They all want to get Tr**p.

Tr**p will now say that the judge is now instituting a gag order on me because he didn't like hearing the truth I was speaking in my speech.

Tr**p's followers that listened to Tr**p's speech tonight - will buy what Tr**p is saying because he set them up to believe that.
