I am thinking at this point the Judge just thinks Trump is a spoiled, selfish brat. IMHO riversedge Apr 21 #41
I agree but I think the Judge should give one more, very clear, warning to Raven Apr 21 #5
Escalating fines and then revoked bail JT45242 Apr 21 #8
It will do absolutely nothing. drray23 Apr 21 #12

I thought folks want him treated like other defendants. onenote Apr 21 #49
Oh, I'm just imagining scenarios. I'm no lawyer. Just having a bit of fun. I don't want anyone to take me seriously. keopeli Apr 22 #55
