He does what he wants anyway, yet everyone is too afraid of incarcerating him for it.

The motherfucker loves testing boundaries. The only ones he'd have to respect are physical, ie walls he loves so much. His whole life has been walking past rules, norms, and shouldn'ts, taking what he wants, and bragging about it.

Walls, preferably 4 of them surrounding him pending trial based on his lengthy prior record of ignoring court orders.

But Old Man Richie Rich will of course die comfortably in his bed while poories of color continue to get summarily executed for looking suspicious.

The absolute worst case for him is compassionate house arrest in the lap of luxury. Funny how the courts always seem to reserve their allocation of compassion for wealthy felons despite our "equal protections under the law," isn't it? His bone spurs ache too much for big boy prison, plus his affluenza is acting up. And even that is highly unlikely in our rigged, corrupted judicial system.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is how Trump wants to be able to spout whatever bullshit he wants to about these cases. And since the prosecution isn't allowed to talk about it, Trump's version will be the one that gets press coverage and poisons the jury pool - or at the very least files up another group of stochastic terrorists who want to shoot Biden, Harris, Obama, Pelosi, the prosecutors, judges and juries. Or, y'know, are willing to settle for mass-murdering blacks, Hispanics, Jews, protestors, socialists, teachers, librarians and whoever else has been vilified by reich-wing media.

that right is “not absolute,”

This has been the case forever. Why is this 'news'?

Edit: For those disagreeing, what has changed?

No one’s right to free speech is absolute. You’re taught this in middle school. Trump should go to jail.

That being said - this is what journalism is now. All you have to do is write an article that will be shared on social media so that people can circle-jerk underneath it.

“Experts say Trump broke the law. Badly.”

Get that on the internet and watch your engagements shoot through the roof with zero effort on your part.

“Anyone paying attention knew this years ago”

“Why is he not in handcuffs already”

“Won’t matter to his supporters. You can’t talk to these people.”

Comments rolling in. Ad revenue rolling in. Media staff members high-fiving as their quarterly goals are met and they are drinking rum and cokes on the clock because how does this shit pass as a journalism gig.

It’s gonna be an interesting weekend.

Throw that fat traitor fuck into a cold, dark pit.

I think the judge has found the appropriate carrot and stick for this one. If there's anything Trump and his attorneys like to do, it's delay, delay, delay. The judge basically said he has free speech but but if it's going to affect jury selection they'll have the trial sooner.
