Marchan needs to go on, bite the bullet and jail his ass for a day. Just one day. Not only will it scare (some of) the crap out of that orange seeer system, it’ll lay the ground for other judges to feel it’s game on, son of a bitch.
That’s “sewer system.” I bitch about autocorrect all the damned time for effing up simple words, deliberately chosen, and this time it gets all petulant and shit
There has to be a judge who will slam the gavel down and put Trump in his place. Someone has to punch that motherfucker in the mouth. If the action is in good conscience then it will (should) stand up to appeal. If that means putting the family of the judge under a security detail then that's what you do.
This is why he's doing this because nobody stops him or sits his ass down. I said as much when he was running for president; this is a man that nobody has ever told him, "NO!" and he will bully as long as people lay down in front of him.
And a snippet of it becomes the meme or GIF of the year. And YouTube has to delete it because there are so many views that it crashes all of YouTube’s servers.
TFG’s storm trooper minions have proven themselves to be violent actors when they are called upon by TFG, either directly or indirectly. The American legal system, by design, can act only after violence has been perpetrated and is handcuffed until that point. If the system isn’t willing to protect jurors in circumstances like this nobody else will either.
Even House members and Senators are unwilling to place themselves at personal risk by voting against TFG, and in many instances have fired full time professional body guards for themselves and their families at great personal expense. Otherwise he would have been impeached.
The judges and prosecutors in TFG’s trials need to recognize the fact that TFG is a dangerous thug with a large and violence prone stormtrooper gang willing to act on his behalf and protect everyone involved in bring him to justice, and afterwards.
Indeed, but we need to stand up to MAGA and Trump or Justice in America has no meaning. It's a hard fight to be sure , though. I feel for those in harm's way.
Indeed, especially when we consider the fact that average Joe Bloe America would already be in jail as well as heavily fined with a huge bond on top of it all.
Shit like this makes me wonder if the fix is already in, no I take that back, there is no doubt the fix is in. If the judicial system cannot treat Trump the same as the rest of us then we are screwed.
It's as though Trump is a hot coal no one wants to touch. If we do manage to get Justice then it behooves all of us to make it impossible for such a tyrannical bunch of willfully stupid people to obtain this level of "special power" in the future.
Steps have to be taken, I know it's not a popular concept but a thorough house cleaning is in order. Our government must be purged of untoward influences that serve no purpose but to allow a small number of people to have complete control over everyone.
The influence of oligarchs and the money they wield along with the religious dominionists must be excised from our government.
REPEAL CITIZENS UNITED! BRING BACK ANTITRUST LAWS! ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT PREVENT CHURCHES OUT OF POLITICS!
As much as I want Trump to suffer the consequences of his infantile behavior, I don't have a problem with waiting until the hearing that the judge has already scheduled for next Tuesday for baby-man to pay the piper. I am entirely unqualified to make legal observations but I think that a little patience will yield the consequences Trump so richly deserves. It seems to me that this judge is not taking any chances on giving team unfair an opportunity to weasel out of jail time for donny, so he is taking his sweet time to get all his ducks in a row. If we cry and stamp our feet that Trump should already be in jail we are being as infantile as him.
Oh hell, there's still a lot of court time between now and Tuesday, donald could well do something that is just impossible to ignore and end up in the pokey before the weekend. Hope springs eternal . . .
Till recently, I would’ve agreed, but the truth is we blew past those ducks years ago.
At what point does justice get its due?
I was married for nearly 3 decades to a sociopath and I’m here to tell you: with every line crossed unpunished, those motherfuckers hunt for a new rule to break. They get high on their boldness and once addicted to the thrill of successfully flouting norms and boundaries, can’t quit.
No more piddly monetary fines, send him to jail!The judge should “rip the band-aid” already, and set a precedent for other judges to take action if necessary. This elementary concept is literally the same as teaching a child that actions have consequences. Parents know that denying structure and consequences does not work in the long run. Not doing anything/giving into the whims of a child’s errant behavior only encourages more bad behavior later. Discipline is sometimes doled out by removing a value item. I cannot understand the theories I’ve heard that sending “-“(45) to jail plays right into ‘what he wants’, so he can play the victim. So judges don’t send him to a jail cell, on purpose. But then what? What does that accomplish? No matter what, he will continue his tour of victimhood, AND he will take this non-disciplinary in-action as a license to keep doing these things. He will continue pushing those boundaries even further. He won’t stop until someone in authority tells him to STOP. It will only continue to get worse and worse. $1K is not a value item in “-“(45)’s case. The value item should be his freedom, revocable if he doesn’t follow the rules, just as it would be for anyone else in that position in a court of law. Judges should be aware by now that not giving him stricter consequences will just exacerbate an already tenuous situation. He’s not going to stop testing the boundaries until they take away his value item!
I don't want his ass to even have one day with social media--all he would do is wreak havoc. Give it a year without Trump stirring shit up, and the world will slowly return to a semblance is normal, even if scars remain.
"...we can’t continue to allow ourselves to be held hostage by the terroristic MAGA force."
MAGA idiots often say things like "We the People are pissed." Well, in addition to being very tired of being excluded from some mouth breather's definition of "we the people", I'm getting impatient for the time the WE the PEOPLE tell the know-nothing party where to go...
They believe by associating Trump with America, any hardship he faces is a hardship "they all" face and his fans will act accordingly. Yeah, not so much with thinking humans.
Unfortunately, I'm not sure we're dealing with folks who are "rational" as we would describe it. Or at least not "reasonable" (they may be rational--they make decisions using some cost benefit calculus--but the way they determine costs and benefits would be completely foreign to us...not "reasonable").
I originally (2016-ish) just thought it was beer commercial patriotism run amok (didn't like it then, either). But the misplaced grievance runs so f-ing deep
But regardless of the merits or lack of merits of their grievance, not enforcing the law because it might make some people mad enough to do violent things is succumbing to terrorism, pure and simple.
Thank you for pointing out the projection hypocrisy, I hope the Prosecution team uses that RWNJ post in the hearing next week to match up timing on what FOX asshat said, damn I wish Dominion hadn't settled out of court... OAN settled in confidential agreement with Smartmatic yesterday (see below) Powell, Lindell and Giuliani should have had their trials by now and the Smartmatic v FOX trial can't happen soon enough... people need to see the lacking evidence of fraud the defense produces. House arrest during trial with no social media activity and 5 days a week schedule should be next NY move IMO, if that gets violated then Rikers, he can be bunk mates with Weisselberg. 💙

Ahahhaha I think autocorrect has it in for the lot of us!
The inventor of autocorrect recently passed away. May he resist in peach.
“Resist in peach” 🤣🤣🤣
Did he invent predictive text, too? That shit's even worse than automobile.
I make sure my autocorrect doesn't fuck me over.
But the one time you forget to proofread….
Exactly--autocorrect lies in wait and then it pounces. Frickin' autocorrect...
Shit happens.😆
Autocorrect can bite Trump and leave the rest of us alone.
You’re a wiser man than I Charles, I have trusted my mind meet fingers far too many times!
Second that on autocorrect. I probably come across many times as a buffoon because I’m lazy about editing.
Me too--sometimes I am just too tired to edit...
I must confess. I’m supposedly ADHD. I don’t just dislike it, I hate it.
All too often I slam "post" before I stop myself long enough to edit, I'm so fueled by outrage and righteous fury, lol.
Autocorrect must be a Republican bug.
If Marchan does nothing it will prove Trump IS ABOVE THE LAW.
There has to be a judge who will slam the gavel down and put Trump in his place. Someone has to punch that motherfucker in the mouth.

I am simply amazed that supposedly tough judges are allowing him to get way with this shit. Who, or what, are they so afraid of?
"Someone has to punch that motherfucker in the face"
I hope he gets all uppity on the way to his prison cell and a guard has to repeatedly punch him in the face to show him who's Boss now. 👍
And there is video cam of it--hours and hours of video cam.
And a snippet of it becomes the meme or GIF of the year. And YouTube has to delete it because there are so many views that it crashes all of YouTube’s servers.
Ahahahaha, this comment made my day!
Thanks! Glad to to hear it.
Excellent idea.
Do jury members need to start dropping out of 4th story hotel windows before trump is held accountable?
He's already placed his call to Saul--who knows what they have up their sleeve.
He’s thought of it - I’d bet on it
Oh, you know it, Trump knows a guy who knows and guy. I hope people are being protected at this juncture.
Recall his ex-cop bodyguard/chauffeur? Ugh
His boss Vlad probably recommends it.
Maybe he has put in a request with his favorite defenestrating dictator.
👍
Probably will not help as he will use the Putin style of Denial.
"Who knew so many jurors were this clumsy..."
Sir, all 12 jurors fell out of a window...
🔥
For the same reason juror 2 bailed out. Fear.

Why will NO ONE STAND UP TO THIS POS?
Apparently not.
I've been saying this since he took office. NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO HIM AND HE KNOWS IT. It's rage inducing.
Indeed, especially when we consider the fact that average Joe Bloe America would already be in jail as well as heavily fined with a huge bond on top of it all.
As usual, Alicia, you've nailed it!
This asshole NEEDS to be in a holding cell, like YESTERDAY. (By which I mean at least ten years ago.)
Agreed, the insufferable prick already receives far too much leeway as it is.
Shit like this makes me wonder if the fix is already in, no I take that back, there is no doubt the fix is in. If the judicial system cannot treat Trump the same as the rest of us then we are screwed.

Co-signed on all of this old friend!
I SO agree with this!

Susan your words to God's ears 👂!!!!
Dizzy with frustration.
The rust-hued monster destroys a democracy and the legal system is spinning down the bowl.
"Dizzy with frustration." Perfect description Deb, and I feel precisely the same.
Just how long will it be before he gets what he wants? Which is of course that someone is seriously hurt - or worse?
Exactly--and then we get legal pundits finger wagging about civility and trusting the system. they can bite me.
Not you. He should bite Giuliani’s shorts.
Roflmao
And he could bite them shorts in jail ALL FUCKIN DAY
Unanimous
Just don't bite Trump's, lawd knows what one might fight in them.
😂😂

His phone
YAS!
Unbelievable. It's got to end. They've got to do something. Trump is such an evil fuck...jail is the only answer. STOP holding the system hostage.
Right--he won't stop his insane antics until he pays for them.
Alicia, you hit the nail on the head-
"...we can’t continue to allow ourselves to be held hostage by the terroristic MAGA force."

Most of them are chickenshits who talk big. They will screetch like Fox News anchors if it happens. But it needs to happen. And soon.
Wanna hear some b.s.? “No one is above the law.” A pacifier for outraged citizens? This system of justice is a joke.
Agreed. We are seeing in real time the preferential treatment the rich get when it comes to justice.
