Trump Calls for Less Courthouse Security, More MAGA Protests

The former president suggested sending the NYPD officers running security around his trial to be deployed to quell protests at Columbia University
Donald Trump would really like his fans to protest outside of his criminal hush money trial in Manhattan.
While protesters are allowed to be present in designated areas outside of the Manhattan Criminal Court, MAGA aficionados have shown little willingness to organize around the trial. On Monday, a disgruntled Trump called for security around the trial to be eased so that his followers would feel more comfortable gathering to support him.

Imagine any other defendant in a criminal proceeding suggesting to reduce security in order for their supporters to disrupt proceedings.
Jury tampering is illegal after all.
At least, for everyone else it is.
Especially a defendant already on a very
thinthick rope regarding his conduct towards jurors and others.But no. Here it is, right there, stochastic terrorism in inviting supporters and suggesting that security be loosened. For a narcissistic former president. Totally normal.
If enough people abstain in November, this criminal will be our narcissistic future president too.
Yeah we know what happened when his cronies reduced security on Jan6...
