Donald Trump has launched a fresh tirade on both the judge and his chief court clerk in his New York civil fraud trial just hours after a gag order banning him from criticising court personnel was paused.
Judge Arthur Engoron had issued the gag order in the case after the former president made a series of false and disparaging remarks about his chief clerk of court Allison Greenfield both to reporters outside the courtroom and on his Truth Social account.
Mr Trump had already violated the gag order twice and incurred $15,000 in fines as a result.
But he isn’t anybody else, he is the ex president. So what’s the point of saying this?
There is absolutely zero precedent for any of this
“Ex-president” aka citizen.

“But he said things I wanted to hear”
So people in power should be held to a lower standard than the rest of us?
That’s a bad fucking idea.
The Supreme Court would like a word.

One more reason he should serve as example. Nobody should be above the law
Hes not avoiding jail cause hes an ex-president.
hes avoiding jail for being a rich white conservative.
If this was a democrat accused of doing what he’d done, they’d be in prison waiting for trial due the preponderance of evidence, or at least home arrest and a severe order against talking about this shit online.
and the blue voting public frothing if he got home arrest over jail.
Trump flouts the courts authority, and the way of law, in a way only rich white conservatives can historically get away with. To the glory and admiration of his base.
Thats the point of saying it.
Good point, he should be held to a higher standard and his penalties doubled at a minimum
Because despite all the chants…some people are indeed above the law.
Some people are more equal than others.
There’s loads of precedent. Who his former employer was is irrelevant. If he broke a law, any law, precedent is what has happened when others have broken those same laws.
But we’re not a nation of laws, we’re a nation of men. So what’s the point of saying this?
