Literally asking for people to interfere with the court case...
Sounds familiar...
And he will face no consequence for it.
And will only get even more bolder as a consequence. It's quite fascinating how that shit head is exposing so many flaws in the current political system. And yet very little is done about it.
Edit- Retracting my statement as I read your reply as "justice system" not "political system."
I shouldn't be awake.
I wish it were only the political system, but it is also the social contract that is being broken.
Not everything in a society can and should be regulated by law. For example, we know not to cough or sneeze in someone else's face, but to put our arm or hand in front of our face. It's not a law and yet 99% of people know it and do it and call out people who don't.
The US political system worked well for a while because there were do's and don'ts that weren't made into law, but every politician respected them to some degree. The GOP no longer respects anyone or anything, not an unwritten rule or even a written law, but they want to be respected, they want their rights to be respected.
This is not just happening in the US, I see it happening in the UK and Germany for example. Basic respect for each other is being lost more and more, between families, between neighbours, even between politicians. How do you get that back?
We don't know how to deal with it as a society. We can't have a law for everything. We depend on people and politicians to keep within the minimum social rules and follow an unwritten code, and we have nothing to punish them if they don't and they just ignore these rules and spit on them.
This is literally why China adopted a social credit system, which penalizes spitting in general but also includes spitting on rules.
Not saying it is the best solution, just saying it exists.
I mean I get the feeling that it isn't being applied equally to magnates and high ranking officials
It's a double edged sword to build up this much shit. We saw with the court cases that nothing happened until one person decided to make a move. After that, the indictments came flooding in.
Someone needs to be willing to be the first one to throw his orange ass in jail for obstruction of justice and witness intimidation. But after that first person moves, I think we'll see everyone move, and it'll all collapse on him.
It's certainly a flaw though, as you point out. Needing one brave person to stick their neck out to maintain rule of law isn't great.
this should be a clear violation of the gag order. but it wont be. theyll be some hand waving and he wont be held to account. and no, a monetary fine is not justice.
The gag order was in reference to court staff only, wasn't it? Didn't the judge explicitly leave himself off it? I forget which judge this is, there are so many
Judge said they had thick enough skin to deal with whatever he said.
I doubt the judge is OK with Trump openly calling for people to do harm to them.
That was very stupid of the judge. Insults and mockery normally are just that. But when someone has a platform as large as Trump full of violent traitors, it turns into death threats pretty quick.
Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?
Turns out quite a few judges are pretty stupid, too. Stupid or corrupt (not in his case but others).
This judge and his court have been getting death threats since day one. He's a chill dude 😎. Respect
Judges have to be careful with their orders. They have a lot of power, but are always subject to review. No judge wants to see their orders overturned on appeal because of some action they took.
So while a judge absolutely can impose a broad gag order on Trump right away based on his past behavior, his lawyers get to appeal, and they have shown that their legal strategy is whining about every little thing until they get their way.
By doing out punishments in small stages, he can establish a clear pattern of objectionable conduct, such that when the harsher penalties come, his lawyers have a much worse position to whine from.
honestly im surprised he didnt just outright threaten someone. it kinda feels like this is a desperate attempt at a mistrial.
how many judges would allow 'well, you only broke the intent of my rules not the letter, so ill let it slide this 3rd time'. its prolly zero... unless of course you know the intent of the defendant is to generate a mistrial or other incident allowing appeal.
Trump isn't a actually stupid. He's just an asshole and normal people don't get it.
But if the judge left himself off, and if Trump can make him adjust the order to add himself, or otherwise indicate that he's upset that he's being targeted himself, Trump can and will then argue that the judge is making personal decisions and ask try to make drama about recusing. Which won't go anywhere, but will ramp his followers up further.
He knows exactly what he's doing.
I mean, I couldn’t disagree more. He’s unfathomably stupid.
Haha that's so true. I have no doubt there are intelligent people around him who are trying to get him to be the evil genius that guy thinks he is, but there's just no way he can do it on his own. Unfathomably stupid is the perfect description.
No he is just him. There’s no act. There’s no strategy. There’s no subterfuge. What you see is what you get and Trump is a very stupid person.
Lots of people are saying he's the dumbest, maybe the dumbest that's ever lived. Just the other day he was punching a baby, and the baby miraculously spoke its first words, calling him dumb. If Nobel had a prize for being dumb, he'd win every year. No one else can compare to his ultimate dumbness.

It's amazing how many times I've seen historians say that this is exactly how historic examples of fascism come about. First people laugh and think 'that would never happen. It's too absurd. Then as day turns steadily into night you look around and realize it's there and it's too late.
I have zero respect for anyone who continues to support the Republican Party, let alone Donald Trump. I can't help but see the same gullible, immoral, selfish fools that supported the likes of Hitler in the early 30s.
The 100th anniversary of the Beer Hall Putsch was last week.
History doesn't repeat, but it certainly rhymes.
Except this time it isn't like there is someone who can swoop and stop it. It's not like the EU is going to be in Washington DC rebuilding the country.
I thought woke was going to destroy America, which is it
I mean, the folks complaining about woke aren't the same folks worried about fascism, it's not like you've called out some contradiction.
Like occupy, it was appropriated by Wall Street.
I would say more like drunk driving 40 over the speed limit down the wrong side of the highway with coke all over our nose
We're the passengers and the people driving insist that there is no right side of the road, this is the right side of the road and you're an anti-American commie for suggesting otherwise!!!! /s
This dude gets more unhinged and desperate every passing day, but a huge chunk of Americans just can't see it. It's crazy.
I think a lot of them do see it, but he pisses off the libs and seems to be promising to hurt the people they want to be hurt, so they are OK with that.
He's literally Hitler, just without the genocide.
Yet.
Just without the genocide so far
Yeah, I mean, his agenda if he's reelected is apparently a genocide, so I wouldn't be counting any chickens here.
There's still time.
Just remember Hitler built up to that. He started off small just like trump is.
Also it wasn't Hitler himself that architected the Holocaust. Him being in power gave power to even worse people. He was happy to go along with it, it just doesn't look like he had any specific plans to actually exterminate the Jews when he was rising to power. So don't think that Trump's lack of any specific agenda means that such a thing won't happen if he is in a position to enable it.
Stephen Miller
Yet.
For a way too large group, his being unhinged bigoted rants are a selling point, not a liability.
For way too many others, they don't care about his unhinged rants because he's pledging to hurt OTHER people, not them.
The former are bad, but aren't enough to sweep Trump into power. The latter, though, could help Trump attain power and then will act shocked when they get targeted.
Lock him the fuck up. Enough already.
Constitution provides gallows. But we see what’s happened, what hasn’t, and to what extent, for whom.
If you lock him up for this, he becomes a "martyr". It needs to go through the process slowly for it to hit right. Give him enough rope.
The Judge after a Right Wing Terrorist puts a bullet in his head: "Let this $10000 fine be a warning to NOT let this happen again!"
While Trump deserves our ire and some jail time, I'm more concerned with what his popularity says about our society.
He's a gift in some ways: he's shown the true colors of our neighbors to us. If he makes it to the oval office again, so much would have to have gone wrong in the belt-and-suspenders approach being used right now.
I trust that there's an end game to disqualifying him because that's the only way we can buy time while figuring out how to address the ugly xenophobic truth about the future in the US.
I STRONGLY recommend reading Susan Faludi's "stiffed" if you want a play book on where we're headed (spoiler: it's the 90s again, but worse because one of the lost boys could be POTUS again)
We should know Friday on the ruling in Colorado. Judge heard closing arguments today.
I really don't know why everyone discounts the propaganda so much. I've been a broken record on this lately because, yes, we have assholes in vast numbers, but we also have a massive propaganda problem that is essentially creating a reality that doesn't actually exist.
That's not to say there aren't hundreds of thousands of people who are just straight up racist hateful assholes, but a very large portion of the people who vote for Trump think they're actually picking a good person... It's infuriating, the criminal isn't a criminal and ol Biden who the right has been attacking forever is somehow actually a criminal that no one can catch..
Belt-and-suspendera approach? We're barely using a drawstring to keep our pants up.
He's a gift in some ways: he's shown the true colors of our neighbors to us.
I'd be more thankful if there were way less "neighbors" showing their true colors right now.
WHY IS THIS MAN STILL WALKING FREE
The judge created this. By slapping him on the wrist, ever so gently, he is absolutely going to get more of it.
Wise TF up judge. Jail. No posting anything about the trial, your court, or anyone involved. You are not dealing with a normal person. He’s a demented sociopath. You can not allow this.
Translation: "The legal system isn't sufficiently stacked in my favour anymore like all the previous hearings were, so somebody move to illegal means of nudging the results while I hide behind plausible deniability in saying that I did not mean that at all."
Perfect recap.
It's actually better. He didn't write the comment, he just re-shared it, boosting the visibility. This is his typical MO. "Lots of people are saying the thing. I didn't say the thing." Until the judges tell him flat out to stop using his social media accounts or they'll throw him in jail, he's going to keep doing this shit.
Trump is a damn criminal fascist grifter. The day he leaves our lives, I'll do a goddamn dance.
Be careful with what you wish for. Hugo Chavez once said "I am more dangerous dead than alive," and he was right.
Edit: downvoted by first world peeps. Well, I really hope I'm wrong.
I think a lot of people would be willing to take that risk.
At this point, with all of the bullshit his cult believes, he'll become a martyr whatever happens (other than him winning). I don't see this going anywhere other than fascism or a civil war, it's just a matter of how long does it take to get there.
Apparently he's behind rigging voting machines in the US!
"Will no one arrest this turbulent judge?"
I’m watching a coup so slo mo, it’s dragging out for almost four years, while Congress, the courts and doj do nothing.
Ball gag this orange lard and throw him in solitary, Christ.
"I wasn't calling for violence when one of my supporters did violence to these people. I said citizen arrest. They misinterpreted when they thought I wanted violence. The knock-on effect of chilling any future prosecutions also isn't what I wanted."
Will no one rid me of this judge?
Anyone know the odds that the chud he keeps "reTruthing" is Russian?
If he's not in America, he's not much use to Russia. If he fled, the US would freeze his assets and seize his properties. All of his value would shrivel like his penis in a Siberian pool.

Do it yourself f-ing orange clown. Such a grift.
Please just vote this buffoon out. I beg of you as a European. Please vote him out and make him irrelevant in every way possible. Just stop this madness.
We did vote him out. 3 years ago.
Member when he basically told hillary to fuck off and shut up because she lost and we shouldn't have to hear from her anymore? Member when his supporters said they'd have backed off and accepted it if he lost?
God I wish this asshat followed his own advice, but a grifting amoral asshole will always do the grifting amoral asshole thing and cultists gotta cultist...
I'm so sick of living here, but I have no marketable skills to offer other countries...
Yes, but I meant next year. Because it's like I'm in 2016 again. Everybody thinks Hillary is going to win and NO WAY anyone would vote for this loser. But with Biden this time.
We already did. He's trying to get voted back in. I'm afraid nothing short of him not existing any more will release his death grip on the GOP.
nothing short of him not existing anymore
And the thing of it is is that this is exactly accurate. The man could die from anything and there would be a small but not insignificant crowd of people prepared to make him a martyr, claiming it was some "deep state" assassination
If it's gonna happen regardless, maybe someone should defenestrate him.
Yeah, but at least they wouldn't be able to vote for him any more. The hate he represents was there before him and will be there after he's gone.
Weird hypothetical: what if he dies, but he's still getting votes? My guess is that there's a decent portion of his supporters that would vote for his corpse, maybe assuming it's some conspiracy and that he'll rise from the dead. I mean he wouldn't be able to take the oath of office, but would congress have to invoke the 25th amendment if a dead person wins the election?
I'm sure he'd still get votes after dying, but not enough to actually be elected. If he died while the election was going on and won, I think the vice president would become president, just as if he'd died in office.
Won't somebody rid me of this meddlesome priest?
I don't know anything about how truthsocial works.
Is "retruthed" the same thing as "retweeting" (or whatever that's called now on xitter), or is it closer to "liking" something?
Regardless, trump now thinks he's found a loophole in the gag oder by letting other people post it and then boosting it somehow?
The article was super confusing to me.
It should be called repost, forward or redistribute. Retruthing is giving that stupid platform legitimacy.
Hahaha, wow that's great news. It was always apparent he didn't understand what was happening around him, but he is really firing both barrels into his own feet here.
I believe it when he actually faces consequences for his ballant regard for every aspect of the justice system.
He's facing fines, his family is in court, he's already been found liable for rape, everyone was saying the same thing before he even went to court. That he would never actually go to court that he would never be found liable for rape, and now he has.
This one incident isn't so important except as a cumulative addition to his felonies. But everything added up is important and he is facing actual consequences.
He's a rapist. Anybody who votes for Trump or supports Trump is voting for and supporting a rapist. That will not change everyone's minds, but it's going to affect how some people vote.
He’s facing fines, his family is in court, he’s already been found liable for rape, everyone was saying the same thing before he even went to court. That he would never actually go to court that he would never be found liable for rape, and now he has.
It's still way to little way to late. The amount of shit that fucker still is allowed to pull would have landed any other normal person in prison months ago. When the justice system does show this unequal application of it's justice, it does hurt it's own perception among the normal people significantly.
It isn't fair or proportional yet, but it proves that even though everybody was saying that he'll never go to court or get in trouble for anything, Trump was found to be a rapist, he is ordered to pay millions of dollars in compensation, his motions to dismiss cases are now being struck down instead of allowed. He's facing 36 felony counts.
Cynicism and marginalization about the sentencing he's already faced and his current legal battles only helps Trump. He wants you to have that exact attitude, because if enough people think that he can't be prosecuted, then you will fulfill your own prophecy.
The justice system in this country is very slow, and it hasn't been "fair" since it's inception, and even so the justice system is working.
He's liable for rape, his business licenses were suspended in New York, his family is going to court, it's being litigated in Colorado whether he can even be on the ballot.
It isn't fair or proportional, but people are actively fighting against Trump and getting results, rather than complaining about how maybe further action won't work.
Somebody's going to get killed over his narcissistic rage bullshit.
You say that as if it hasn't happened already.
Someone should fucking citizens arrest that seditious piece of shit.
Literally asking for people to interfere with the court case...
Sounds familiar...
And he will face no consequence for it.
And will only get even more bolder as a consequence. It's quite fascinating how that shit head is exposing so many flaws in the current political system. And yet very little is done about it.
Edit- Retracting my statement as I read your reply as "justice system" not "political system."
I shouldn't be awake.
I wish it were only the political system, but it is also the social contract that is being broken.
Not everything in a society can and should be regulated by law. For example, we know not to cough or sneeze in someone else's face, but to put our arm or hand in front of our face. It's not a law and yet 99% of people know it and do it and call out people who don't.
The US political system worked well for a while because there were do's and don'ts that weren't made into law, but every politician respected them to some degree. The GOP no longer respects anyone or anything, not an unwritten rule or even a written law, but they want to be respected, they want their rights to be respected.

This is literally why China adopted a social credit system, which penalizes spitting in general but also includes spitting on rules.
Not saying it is the best solution, just saying it exists.

It's a double edged sword to build up this much shit. We saw with the court cases that nothing happened until one person decided to make a move. After that, the indictments came flooding in.

In their version of reality there's actually a real reason why everyone is coming down on Trump and it's spun in a way to make you think he's a victim of the "ruling elite" who's trying to prevent him from Fixing America™. Their version of reality has Trump as a likeable silly person who has a loving family and just wants to use his Business Acumen™©® to set America on the right path.

Yeah, but at least they wouldn't be able to vote for him any more. The hate he represents was there before him and will be there after he's gone.
Weird hypothetical: what if he dies, but he's still getting votes? My guess is that there's a decent portion of his supporters that would vote for his corpse, maybe assuming it's some conspiracy and that he'll rise from the dead. I mean he wouldn't be able to take the oath of office, but would congress have to invoke the 25th amendment if a dead person wins the election?
I'm sure he'd still get votes after dying, but not enough to actually be elected. If he died while the election was going on and won, I think the vice president would become president, just as if he'd died in office.
Won't somebody rid me of this meddlesome priest?
I don't know anything about how truthsocial works.
Is "retruthed" the same thing as "retweeting" (or whatever that's called now on xitter), or is it closer to "liking" something?
Regardless, trump now thinks he's found a loophole in the gag oder by letting other people post it and then boosting it somehow?
The article was super confusing to me.
It should be called repost, forward or redistribute. Retruthing is giving that stupid platform legitimacy.
Hahaha, wow that's great news. It was always apparent he didn't understand what was happening around him, but he is really firing both barrels into his own feet here.
I believe it when he actually faces consequences for his ballant regard for every aspect of the justice system.
He's facing fines, his family is in court, he's already been found liable for rape, everyone was saying the same thing before he even went to court. That he would never actually go to court that he would never be found liable for rape, and now he has.
This one incident isn't so important except as a cumulative addition to his felonies. But everything added up is important and he is facing actual consequences.
He's a rapist. Anybody who votes for Trump or supports Trump is voting for and supporting a rapist. That will not change everyone's minds, but it's going to affect how some people vote.
It's still way to little way to late. The amount of shit that fucker still is allowed to pull would have landed any other normal person in prison months ago. When the justice system does show this unequal application of it's justice, it does hurt it's own perception among the normal people significantly.
It isn't fair or proportional yet, but it proves that even though everybody was saying that he'll never go to court or get in trouble for anything, Trump was found to be a rapist, he is ordered to pay millions of dollars in compensation, his motions to dismiss cases are now being struck down instead of allowed. He's facing 36 felony counts.
Cynicism and marginalization about the sentencing he's already faced and his current legal battles only helps Trump. He wants you to have that exact attitude, because if enough people think that he can't be prosecuted, then you will fulfill your own prophecy.
The justice system in this country is very slow, and it hasn't been "fair" since it's inception, and even so the justice system is working.
He's liable for rape, his business licenses were suspended in New York, his family is going to court, it's being litigated in Colorado whether he can even be on the ballot.
It isn't fair or proportional, but people are actively fighting against Trump and getting results, rather than complaining about how maybe further action won't work.
Somebody's going to get killed over his narcissistic rage bullshit.
You say that as if it hasn't happened already.
Someone should fucking citizens arrest that seditious piece of shit.
