“Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb tells CNN’s Erin Burnett he thinks former President Donald Trump will spend time in jail for violating a limited gag order if it is restored by a federal appeals court.”

From CNN

Assuming that Judge Tanya Churkan’s gag order is reinstated (and I’m not a lawyer) Donald Trump will not only violate it, but then be fined and probably violate it multiple times and be fined multiple times and perhaps his lawyers will be fined as well for not being able to control their own client. And yes, if the fines don’t work, I believe Judge Chutkan will send Donald J. Trump to jail for contempt of court. Talk about real reality TV: who would miss seeing Donald J. Trump being sent to a real jail to serve time there?

Ty Cobb obviously knows Donald Trump better than me, as well as Erin Burnett and knows what it’s like to try to work for that man and he’s saying that his former client when DJT was President, will not only lose this appeal, but then violate the gag order.

I don’t get any pleasure in comparing a former President of the United States, even a failed and bad President, a President that only managed to get 46% of the vote in two, two-way-races in 2016 and 2020, to a mobster. But I think you have to look at Donald Trump with all the cases and all the evidence that’s against him, a man who views himself as unaccountable and above the law, in that way.

Donald Trump knows what happened as well, if not better on January 6th, 2021, better than everyone else. Or at least no one knows that day better than him. He knows about his own activity today, he knows what the people around him know about that day. He knows what he told them and what he told them to do. And now most if not all those people, including his own Vice President Mike Pence, his own Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, will be testifying against him.

When you are a mobster and you know your guilty, at least under law and you know what’s against you as far as the evidence and the witnesses against you, but you still don’t want to go to prison anyway, your only real play here is to try to make the case against the prosecutors, instead of the case against you and try to prove your innocence. As well as try to intimidate witnesses who will testify against you. Perhaps try to incite violence against the witnesses against you, since there’s no evidence that Donald Trump has ever personally directed someone to take out or beat up a witness against him.

That’s why this gag order will be imposed against him because that’s how DJT will try to win the case, by trying to poison the jury pool so the jury simply won’t believe their own ears and eyes in this case and ignore all the evidence and witnesses against the former President of the United States
