In reply to the discussion: Why Trump Showed Up At The Civil Trial [View all]gab13by13
(32,845 posts)7. At first I was upset that judge Chutkan
gave Trump 3 weeks to come up with an argument for why she shouldn't gag him, but the more I think about it, that was a smart move.
If judge Chutkan had immediately put a gag order on Trump he would have appealed it. Now, when Trump keeps on with his threats leading up to October 16th's hearing there will be concrete evidence to bring before the Appeals court to gag Trump.
Judge Chutkan warned Trump to stop his threats and sad for me to say, but I hope he keeps threatening people right up to Oct. 16, he is asking to be gagged, or maybe even worse? Nah.
