TRUMP wants to be jailed. And it would hand the election to him. Groundhawg Apr 23 #51

He wants it but I don't think it's gonna hand the election to him. live love laugh Apr 23 #52

Concur. He can't even get a few dozen die hards to the courthouse. Pity his SS team that has to babysit him in jail. dutch777 Apr 23 #53

The idea by Judge Cordell explained later in this thread senseandsensibility Apr 23 #54

That's brilliant. live love laugh Apr 24 #58

What do you think he should do? TexasDem69 Apr 23 #2

At the very least begin quickly with the fines senseandsensibility Apr 23 #6

Jail makes an important difference Silent3 Apr 23 #49

Fine him - then double the fine for each violation csziggy Apr 24 #59

From a man that just paid (whatever?) for a 175,000,000 bond? Sucha NastyWoman Apr 23 #13

My fantasy is that Merchan is going to jail him but had to check with the SS first. Irish_Dem Apr 23 #4

I'm pretty sure it will begin with a fine. bluestarone Apr 23 #9

No, 6 months of appeal and negotiating the fine. Irish_Dem Apr 23 #15

SAD! bluestarone Apr 23 #18

He paid the $15,000 that he was fined in the Carroll case for violating Judge Engoron's gag order. onenote Apr 23 #27

Good. Irish_Dem Apr 23 #35

Being unhinged doesn't change the fact that he'll have to pay any fine even if he appeals it. onenote Apr 23 #37

Assuming 26 days is a long delay, its not relevant to his obligation to pay a contempt fine. onenote Apr 24 #56

I think Judge Merchan will announce his decision when he's ready.... brooklynite Apr 23 #10

I'm perplexed too. Anger is starting to set in after hearing no decision today. Boomerproud Apr 23 #34

I don't know if I am at the anger stage yet senseandsensibility Apr 23 #39

Not much, monetary fine but that is all. republianmushroom Apr 23 #43
