People forget sometimes conveniently that Don 'Legit' is out on bail as a criminal defendant in four cases,two state (GA, NY) and two federal (FL, DC). He and his supporters have been using the press to intimidate court personnel, potential jurors, and witnesses. It has become so blatant that the Special Prosecutor has moved for a gag order in DC federal court prohibiting him from making these kind of statements. Of course the Orange Menace is screaming bloody hell about being restrained, claiming at every opportunity that his First Amendment right to free speech is curtailed. In other words, his political campaign cover is giving jurists second thoughts about sanctions. He may be a front-running political candidate, but that status does not entitle him to shout "fire" in a crowed theater, or attempt to intimidate prospective jurors and witnesses. Criminal defendants have their civil rights restricted all the time. Trump should be no different especially if he is attempting to try his crimes in the court of public opinion.
It is becoming increasingly likely that the 2024 election will be a rematch between Ole Joe and the man who would be king. Trump supporters are at work in the states to alter delegate rules in favor of Trump's candidacy. His nearest competitor, Ron DeSantis, continues to plummet in opinion polls. Trumpillini is so comfortable with his lead that he can skip party debate events and organize his own showcases like the upcoming speech to autoworkers in Detroit. Spoiler alert: his record on unions and workers is pitiful. Despite the facts, (his so-called rescue of workers in Indiana ended up with 1400 being laid off by Carrier Global Corp.) Democrats are freaked out by the pseudo-populist showing up in Detroit because he captured a large share of labor votes last time around. Uncle Joe Brandon is on his way to show solidarity with striking auto workers on the picket line. Way to go Joe!
And one last item: Cassidy Hutchinson, star witness of the January 6th Select Committee, claims Rudy 'Coludie' groped her on January 6th in her tell-all book, "Enough". Seems Rudy was just trying to match his boss, the department store rapist.
