I don't care how or how much it costs . . . .

. . . . . but the jurors and their families need to be protected.

I said this yesterday and I will say it again. They citizens doing their duty. They don't know how to protect themselves or their families. They don't know what to watch for. They don't know what a threat looks like. The court has an absolute obligation to protect them.

The court also has an obligation to draw the line at ZERO with regard to what they will tolerate from the defendant, including his code words to the thugs he has around him. If jail is the answer, then jail the defendant.

We cannot allow this one criminal defendant suck the air out of the entire atmosphere of the planet.

This is likely the only shot at sidelining Trump before November.

And Judge Merchan needs protection, too. Psychos go after judges, too.

I don't think it's too extreme to say the jurors are literally putting their lives on the line to serve on this case.
