My prediction for tomorrow - judge, in addition to protective order, issues gag order sua sponte

54. Since money is all that Trump cares about,

and since he has violated the terms of his release on his own recognizance, I would like to see the judge require that Trump post a large cash sum as bail assurance that he will not violate the terms of release again. If not a cash sum, then a property of equal monetary value. When he violates the bail terms, he forfeits the money or property.

Bail is used as assurance that the defendant will show up in court, especially if he is a flight risk. But since Trump is committing more crimes while on release without bail (threatening witnesses and juries is a crime), then it seems to me that material bail in a large amount is warranted, considering the amount of damage that he is doing.

He would probably use the cost of the bail for more grifting, but would also feel the hurt if he has to forfeit the bail money. That's why I would prefer to see him required to put one of his properties up for bail, like Mar a Lago, Bedminster, or Trump Hotel. Something of personal value to him as well as of material value.

It has to be something that Trump values enough to feel the hurt if he loses it.
