If some motherfucker attacked my daughter, there is no force on the face of this earth that would prevent me from having a "discussion" with said motherfucker. None, I give zero fucks how many layers of security the motherfucker has, I would find a way to have that "polite" conversation.
That is all.

(447 posts)He is a judge and he has to comport himself accordingly. If he handles this the wrong way, Don Poorleone will get the delay he desires.

(447 posts)There is a motion before him to clarify the terms of the gag order. Until he rules on that you don't know what his reaction is.

(8,103 posts)in the right direction. He can now haul him in on a show cause and sanction him in any way he sees fit. He doesn't have to be nice about it. Trump already has his appeal hook (1A), so there's nothing we can do about that. This is not the Judge's first rodeo. The Judge did wait for Bragg to make the request for expansion or clarification, but it seems to be the case that Judges will react to appropriate requests. There was no reason for him to react to Bragg's request and omit his own daughter, so he included his own family. A totally reasonable thing to do.
I just hope we see huge fines, not pipsqueak $5,000 increments. Maybe one warning, a fine, and then hook him up. Fine him $100,0000 and warn him that he'll be arrested for the second instance of any breach. Something like that. Two weeks to go, but that doesn't mean he'll quit during jury selection and/or the trial. So, more like six to eight weeks to go. Oh, hell, just arrest him for contempt of court, right off the bat (get it?)
Get him, Judge!
The People need to support this Judge and Prosecutor. This might be the only justice we get this year. They have to have a lot of intestinal fortitude to do this for us. Trump is a rapist, a fraud huckster, and soon to be felon. Make it count, J. Merchan!
