    I love the fact that Trump has been found in contempt of court for violating a gag order and making threats to participants in the trial ten fucking times, and the most he received is a stern look from mommy as she says “Don’t make me count to three…”, knowing full well he’ll never go past 2 and a half.

    And they’re even talking about putting him in jail for a few minutes or a few hours at a time and hoping he “learns”. The man is threatening violence against people and the most this court system seems to be willing to give him isn’t a “time-out”. The most they’re willing to do is the threat of a time out.

    Seriously. Ten fucking times and they’re talking about maybe possibly throwing him in jail for a few minutes. If anyone needs proof of our two-tier justice system, here you go. I can go on youtube right now and find literally thousands of court videos showing people being held in contempt of court and serving days in jail for wearing inappropriate clothing, grunting at the wrong time, and not saying “your honor”. But this man literally stands right in front of the courthouse and violates the gag order on the daily, and the most he’s gonna get is a glorified tour of a holding cell if he violated the order eleventy billion more times.

    Even if he is found guilty, do you think this sack of putty is going to be willing to throw Trump in jail? Because I’ve seen no evidence yet that this judge, or any other one, has the stones to do it.
