Contempt of court that arises during a trial has zero effect on the outcome. A judge can throw you in jail for violating decorum, much less violating an order.

Trump’s legal team needs to watch My Cousin Vinny again.

Yeah id love to see the shocked Pikachu face on the attorney who told him he wouldn't sit in jail at all as the bailiffs haul Trump's ass out of court.

It is the liberal democracy’s attack on the ideologue that clinches his victory. But we also have no choice but to try to hold him to account. It’s an ancient dance and we’re locked into it. I see no way out.

times are about to get a whole lot darker.
