1. 'The walls are closing in...'

I hope he blows his gasket.

2. He's already close to losing his mind and now he has to sit quietly listening to the charges against him day after day

Given that he keeps falling asleep, I can't help wondering if he's medicated...

5. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if medication is involved.

We all know how little impulse control he has, and his behavior has to be kept under control in that courtroom somehow.

Although it evidently wasn't working today when he got a talking to for gesticulating and muttering something at one of the jurors.

6. Adderall Withdrawl, Maybe?

Keeping Dozo the Clown awake without making him fidgety and uncontrollable is going to be a delicate balance. Hope they have Ronny Jackson on "speed" dial...

10. Dozo the Clown!

Dozo the Clown!
DOZO THE CLOWN!

8. He just can't help himself, medication or not. An actual gag or strait-jacket may be the only solution which wouldn't happen

And, as we've seen, his lawyers can't control him, so they might just as well accept the consequences, he could end up being jailed, away from anyone he can't help attacking. They have said that there's a cell through a door at the back of courtroom where incarcerated defendants wait for trial.

3. I wish I had been called for jury duty on his trial

So they could read all my social media posts about Trump to his face before they dismissed me from the pool.

4. You're tougher than I am, I don't think I could hold it together

I'd feel I was in the presence of evil.

7. Looks like someone messed up with Trump's fake tanning again as he looks like an Oompa Loompa.

9. I heard yesterday that he's toning down his makeup so he doesn't look quite so clown-like in the courtroom.
