Donald Trump fined $5,000 for violating gag order in New York fraud trial and warned twice about imprisonment

Former President Donald Trump was fined $5,000 by a New York judge on Friday for violating a gag order not to speak about any members of the court staff – and was warned twice about possible imprisonment.
“Donald Trump has received ample warning from this Court as to the possible repercussions of violating the gag order. He specifically acknowledged that he understood and would abide by it,” Judge Arthur Engoron said in his order Friday.
“Accordingly, issuing yet another warning is not longer appropriate; this Court is way behind the ‘warning’ stage.”

If his staff is incompetent he should hire the best and the brightest, or do the work himself.
He can no longer afford the best and brightest, and they’re too smart to accept “trust me, bro” as a guarantee of payment. Additionally, he’s not used to doing things himself; he’s used to having underlings do things for him.
The only people who will work for him now are sycophants and/or people who are motivated by some sort of personal gain. In other words, he’s surrounded by incompetent, greedy losers. Heh heh heh.
What? Donald Trump doesn't know how to operate a website, and few competent people are willing to work for him. None of this changes my argument that if a former president is put in jail, let's have it be because he did something willfull or malicious
"Someone told me I need pipes for the website. We need to get the best pipes. Do they come in gold plate?"
