  2. Someone else is writing this material, Trump was editing it. Curious who orchestrated the destructive charade.

  3. Every moment, of every day, of this trial puts the lie to the American ~~justice~~ legal system. It shines a spotlight on that which none can even pretend to ignore: the rule of law does not apply to the elite, and it never has.

    Always remember that if you can afford to easily pay a fine, then it was never a punishment nor a deterrent in the first place. Instead, it is simply the cost of doing business for something you always planned to do.

  4. You can actually approach him that closely- especially with a press badge? Should have got pics for the judge

  5. Encouraging others to intimidate witnesses and the court is a breach of his gag order. Lock him up.

  6. A clear violation of his gag order, all three elements of which begin with “making or directing others to make public statements”

  7. “Say these words for me.” – trump

    “Yes sir.” – bootlickers

  8. What a sad and pathetic cult. Don’t these Trump ass-kissers have any self-respect?

  9. Crime Boss

    Mafia

    Fucking criminal.

    Throw him AND his cronies in jail for contempt.

    I want Johnson to be voted out of the speakership now.

    Why the FUCK does Donald Trump have current control over our LEGISLATIVE BRANCH OF GOVERNMENT!

  10. If there is proof that he is editing and rewording speeches that other people read, is that a violation of his gag order?

  12. Prosecution should ask the judge to question the entourage under oath… and see what falls out.

  13. One time I went to a campaign stop for Mike Huckabee (Don’t @ me it was 8 minutes from my house and I was just wanting to see what a campaign stop looked like, I’ve never been to one) and I went pretty early and walked around checking everything out. There was a campaign manager there backstage telling a group of black people they had brought in when to stand up and clap and handing them signs about fair tax? Can’t remember, these people were obviously paid by somebody 

  14. They’re not even subtle, they’re literally reading off pieces of paper, while using the EXACT same lines and talking points

  16. If I’m a mob boss and I asked my crew to intimidate a witness or juror on my behalf I’ve broken the law and the guy who went through with it broke the law.

  17. Violate your gag order with this one simple trick! Judges hate it!

  18. Tbh – this is most evidence of him doing actual work I’ve heard

  19. For JD Vance this is an improvement of sorts. At least he’s not having Putin write his remarks.

  21. Good lord, the titles on these articles. Frothing ire I say and humbug!

  22. Actually proves cohen’s point that trump was directing everything

  23. Violating his gag order by proxy. Lock him up, as well as his capos.

  24. This Orange asshole is too stupid to edit anything.The only editing he is doing is capitalizing EVERY WORD of the entire speech…

  25. The judge needs to force Trump’s stooges to appear in court and testify under oath whether or not this is true. If it is Trump needs to go to jail.

  26. I’d imagine the prosecutors and Judge see through this charade to violate the gag order by using others to do his bidding. We saw it on J6 and we’ve heard it in testimony from Michael Cohen who used to allow himself today be weaponized by Trump.

  27. Don’t worry nothing is going to happen here.

    Republicans in Congress are under the protection of Merrick Garland who has refused to even investigate any of them who were directly implicated – even by Trump himself – in the plot to overthrow our government.

    And this judge has already made it clear he won’t pass down any meaningful punishment to Trump for violating the gag order.

    So if a law or even several laws were violated it won’t matter. Nothing will come of it. Republicans will continue to be above the law. Just like always. No accountability for their crimes.

  28. Gag order terms: “Trump, other parties and their counsel cannot make statements about witnesses “concerning their potential participation in the investigation or in this criminal proceeding,” and cannot make public statements about court staff, counsel in the case or their families”

  29. Yeah I mean what Johnson said very very obviously wasn’t in his speaking voice. I’ve only been aware of the man’s existence for a few months and could tell that.

  31. I say “Let’s do it and get it over with “. Maybe his sycophants will behave so badly they’ll be in jail in November.

  33. Further evidence that he is a micromanager who approves EVERYTHING personally. His claims of plausible deniability are laughable.

  34. The crayon marks and spelling errors have him away.

  35. Best use of the word stooge and all the reason to bring it back.

  36. This should violate his gag order. He needs to be jailed and his communications restricted.

  37. > Rice recalled: “I could actually look over Trump’s shoulder and see what he was reading, at one point he was actually reading the quotes that these individuals were … and going through and making notations with a pen on the paper.”

  38. Proof, I need proof. Before I use this argument, I need evidence. I do not want to regurgitate hearsay in my debates with others.

  39. I don’t understand why the GOP still associates with trump. He only has power because they let him have power. He doesn’t have money or even friends. The maga voting block is a minority and has extremely short attention spans anyway, the GOP could drop trump and have an actual party again within a year.

    Thanks for the reddit cares message, and wasting 2 minutes of my time reporting the report

  41. He micromanages everything….cannot delegate, and doesn’t trust anyone. This is actually good, as when he leaves the stage, whenever, or however that blessed day be, there won’t be a back bench or B team to take over….his evil stooges don’t have the lock on the Make Amerika Moronic Again folks.

  42. I mean, they all dressed in the same suit and tie as Dump. They were clear proxies, of course he’s also writing their speeches
