    LOWEST OF THE LOWEST OF NOT ONLY HUMAN, BUT LIVING SPECIES!!!
  • These are the side effects of arrogance and never being held accountable a day in his life!

    For those who call this unconstitutional, keep in mind you are free to say what you like, but you are not free from the consequences of said speech. Your 1st Amendment stops when it infringes on the rights of others. Furthermore, he doesn't HAVE to run for President. That's a choice. Answering to these charges, however, is mandatory.
  • It's insane that an adult feels entitled to berate people on a daily basis

    That's what you have to do when you're dealing with an 80 yr old man that carries himself like a spoiled 12 yr old.
  • Trump should have been held accountable years ago, if he had then America would not be the laughingstock it has become around the world
  • i hope this judge has a strong spine and have this lying traitor locked up if he disrespects the court
  • @zillyzill
    So tired of this fool! 4 years of his presidency was more than enough....Can someone grow a set and hold him accountable? WTF

    Protect this Judge for doing his job for the American people!

    The Trump playbook : Be a bully/ play the victim . Repeat...

    Most people haven't committed their crimes in front of the world and can claim some semblance of innocence.
  • @JC-cu3sr
    Decreasing the amount on trump's bond recently encourages his unacceptable behavior.
  • @markshelor3991
    Y'know what's unusual? A former president attacking witnesses and jurists in his trial.
  • @PieterBreda
    Most people are smart enough not to insult the person who is going to judge you. You have to be supremely arrogant and daft to do otherwise.

    Breach his bail. Take away his phone. Let him sit in the cells until the caae is over.

    Telling Trump to abide by a gag order is like telling water not to be wet
  • Don Poorleonne found another way to grift his supporters at $60 a pop. A fool and their money will soon be parted. 😂
