Former president Donald J. Trump is awaiting trial on four indictments. Out on bail with some (very minor) restrictions, in that he's not to discuss specifics of his cases with anyone other than his legal council.
In the Mar-a-Lago stolen documents case, he's not to discuss anything with his co-defendant and personal aide Walt Nauta. For one moment, do you that will hold true?
If you know Trump, a judge's request means nothing, as he's got a lifetime of doing and saying what he wants whenever he wants. He was banned from Twitter for violating their policy and that lead to him creating his own social media platform called TRUTH, where the truth is no one can stop him from posting misinformation to his hearts content.
Trump doesn't 'play fair' and because of that fact, he lost on a defamation case to journalist E. Jean Carroll. After the court's decision he was back on TRUTH badmouthing the woman that brought another round of defamation charges.
He's been attacking anyone he feels is a threat and and includes his inflammatory public statements directed at special counsel Jack Smith and Judge Tanya Chutkan.
Because Trump is running for office, he's using any instruction of limiting his conduct to the restriction of his first amendment rights, claiming it's political and a witch hunt.
I've been hearing 'witch hunt' going on 6 years now. If he doesn't use it in every public appearance, it's like having steak without sprinkling salt on the top!
I say, the law should prevail and it's time for a gag order.
In short, a gag order is a legal court order to ban a person or group of people from publicly disclosing information that could taint the integrity of a trial, possibly affect the jury or jury selection.
In layman's terms, it means STFU.
The difficulty of the court ordering a gag order on Trump is he's a cry baby, so it has to be specially written 'just for him' as a standard order for anyone else out on bail, just won't do.
Next week could be the test if it works or not.
I'll wager he will post about it on TRUTH and try to use it as a blame for Biden and his weaponized FBI... political interference.
... but that's my opinion as some of my blogs are.
