"SNIP.......
Donald Trump cant seem to stop talking about his indictment. But once hes arraigned, its extremely likely that hell have to, Insider reports.
His freedom to rant on Truth Social and say what he wants about his case at rallies will likely change once he surrenders and appears in a Manhattan courthouse.

(1,263 posts)A real gag strapped around his head, he in an orange straitjacket, shackled to a chair, that is bolted to the floor. Of a concrete cell. In solitary confinement. Just to taunt him, down one of those straitjacket sleeves,his fingers of one tiny hand are able to sweep over the screen of a smart phone disconnected from the Internet. That's not too much to ask, is it?
I had the same thought just a couple of minutes too late.

My question is would the statements that got out affect the trial, the jury? Would it be like paying for a license to pollute Public Opinion? Perhaps create the possibility of a mistrial?
