Former President Donald Trump received a $5,000 fine on Friday for violating the gag order put in place by Judge Arthur Engoron to protect his staff and his courtroom’s proceedings.
$5000. What bullshit.

5k? What a loser, that Judge should throw it up to 200k and state if it happens again it will include jail time. Why does everyone walk on eggshells with these idiots, I don't care who it is, fine them and jail them
Unfortunately Trump's best and only defense right now is that this is all a deep state witch hunt and he's being treated unfairly by the justice system. The way to not let that defense gain any traction is to make it painfully obvious to any observer that they are handling Trump as a defendant with kid gloves.
I cannot fathom how people don't get this. Look, if I told you what I would do to every human being that planned and participated on 01/06, I would get perma banned. I got more PTSD from that day than from literally having my ass kicked and robbed on Christmas Eve. I'm more than a leetle mad.
But we gotta handle this very damned carefully. Yes, that means being more than fair to Trump. We're going for the slam dunk conviction of the century, arguably the last two centuries.
I want this man in a concrete and steel box, with zero wiggle room to whine about unfairness.
That's the problem right there: Trumpers aren't "observing" any of this, they're just absorbing what (little) the right-wing media are saying about all of this. And the right-wing media will say it's a witch hunt regardless of what's actually going on. Worrying about what the right-wing media are going to say about anything is a losing game.
