To complete the narrative of his martyrdom, he feels he must be jailed. [View all]

So he is taunting the Judge Chutkan, vowing to break her orders if imposed:

***********************************************

Former President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday that he would violate any gag order preventing him from talking about special counsel Jack Smith's election interference case against him.

. . .

"Crooked Joe now wants the thug prosecutor, this deranged guy, to file a court order taking away my First Amendment rights so that I can't speak," Trump told the group. "The case is a ridiculous case. It's a First Amendment case. But we don't want Trump to speak. So they want me, they take away your rights on First Amendment."

. . .

"When we say I can't talk, I'd love to," he added. "I will talk about it. I will. They're not taking away my First Amendment."

I think the judge should order a comprehensive psych exam--not because I think he's any more nuts hlthe2b Aug 2023 #8
