Hes right about ONE thing! This IS the most embarrassing moment in a while - thats saying something! The idea that this orange idiot was our president? That was pretty embarrassing, too. The idea that Senators and Congressmen (and women) are afraid of this idiot? There is where the embarrassment should land - on their shoulders.

Thanks for the summary of the deranged rants of a failed public figure. It is all going to get worse. So discouraging even unnerving to see all of the GOP lackeys lining up to show fealty to the king whose clothes are vanishing. Be so glad when this is over. It is time to sing a chorus or two of We Shall Overcome..... because the tide is turning. Wisconsin!! Chicago!!!

Yes, let's also remember that Chicago might just be the most important win for showing the Democrats who has power and who doesn't.

There are no clothes to vanish. The Emperor has no clothes and never did. And all of the empty suits continue to rally around him and his vile mouth. It is truly embarrassing.

Trump will not shut up. Perhaps the judge will put a gag order in place. Which would be great because we are all gagging at the nonsense he is spouting.

Because it can't shut up, it will defy the gag order and get himself busted. Or fined bigly.

Or both.

A week in Rikers Island might do it..... Trump has finally realized, after a lifetime of beating the raps, that Ray Bradbury was right - Something Wicked This way Comes.....

And it would be delicious if some of the Central Park Five showed up on visiting day to tell him where the best spots "in the yard" are.

Ole bone spurs, rock throwing, Trumpkin orange bumpkin rolling down his MAGA hill of shite. Class A embarrassment to our

country and the former office of

the presidency. He has yet to see the full force of what no one

is above the law and justice mean for his raggedy butt.

His addle-brained demon spawn, junior, posted a photo of Judge Marchan's daughter on line. Can we get him indicted lickety split for trying to intimidate the judge and endangering his family? Send his loser butt to Rikers. Piece of crap.

Respect, TC. I cannot listen to him for and hour. Physically cannot. Joyce Vance says NY is loathe to issue a gag order, 1st Amendment rights and oppression, as you noted. However, they would incarcerate. Maybe only for a day or two, in hopes it would impress upon the defendant their compliance is a requirement (it wouldn’t, in this case) but ... since it wouldn’t, longer periods of time could happen until one day( especially if violence became manifest) bail is revoked.

I really like the thought of IT going to Rikers and then having bail revoked.

Inciting violence should be a no-no for ALL, word-salad or not…

He's heading to Rikers it's just a matter of time, he'll be able to scream all he wants in his cell, that is until all of the inmates around him get fed up with hearing it, like all of us, and make it very clear to him just how they feel about it. A bar of soap in a sock up the side of his head will start to get his attention, it worked in the Army, but then again even our most moronic soldiers were Noble Prize winners in comparison to that scumbag, it'll probably take a box of bars.

If only someone had an answer to this question it would be the most magnificent day in most recent history! Because as we know even if the court orders him to keep his trap shut he won't, he just can't! The narcissistic idiot just loves hearing himself talk.

How about stuffing a few hamberders in his mouth?

If one of Trump's MAGA followers so much as touches a hair on the head of anyone Trump has threatened so far, I hope the judge has him remanded to Rikers until the trial - we'll see what 7-8 months in that hell hole will do to make Trump shut up.....

Can the judge issue the gag order on his own, or do the prosecutors have to make a request? BTW, appreciate your listening and reporting. I’m actually a bit surprised that Trump went off on the judge. Thanks, too, for reminding me of the Hemingway lines, which I hope apply to the Orange Monster. ❤️🤍💙

He'll STFU when he departs this mortal coil. Unfortunately he's a poison that spreads through the human mind.

“Obey”. A word incomprehensible in TrumpMind

I’m curious if the judge will take the Bull by the short hairs

My maternal grandmother used to use that phrase (without the bull) ... until one of her sons informed her of what short hairs were in question. She was thinking nape of the neck.

Possibly the disgraced, defeated, failed insurrectionist is establishing grounds for an insanity defense leading me to wonder how he and his sycophants will try to square that with his candidacy. Does the federal government have special housing for criminals who aren't in full possession of their faculties and who pose an extreme danger to the country?

The only way to shut tRump up is to duct tape. his mouth. It would probably have to be wrapped around his head a couple of times to keep it on.
