He's going to end up getting tossed out of the courtroom if he keeps it up. He'll like that, though, since he'll be able to complain about it for months.

He never has any consequences for anything he does. So Kaplan throws him out. He'll have another thing to whinge about. He'll claim the trial is rigged and fraudulent. He'll try to get a mistrial. He'll use it for fund raising.

As many have said here before, the only thing that will ultimately shut him up is the sound of a prison cell door slamming.

I don't know what the judges options are here. Would make my day, if TFG spends some time in JAIL for his bullshit disruption. But not sure if that would be the right thing to do. The fucker is just like a fucking FLY that won't leave you alone. (Maybe a sound proof booth?)
