@WordsmithFL. A roll of duct tape would work better
@TR_forester6291 He's playing to the jury. He's hoping they're as gullible as his flock of sheep.
@WordsmithFL Ffs. π
@WordsmithFL he needs to be treated like the middle schooler he's acting like. Toss him in jail overnight for contempt of court.
@joycereynoldsward I'd prefer fines for contempt of court. The only thing he cares about is money. Sitting in jail overnight just gets him more sympathy from the MAGAs. They're even selling T-shirts with his booking photo. A check for a $10,000 fine doesn't sell T-shirts. π
@WordsmithFL the fines won't do a damn thing for him. Locking him up might make an impression on HIM. Fines? He'll just blow them off.

βI feel an obligation to be at every moment of this ridiculous trial because we have a seething and hostile Clinton-appointed Judge, Lewis Kaplan, who suffers from a major case of Trump Derangement Syndrome,β Trump posted on Truth Social.
