Donald Trump refused to take down a post attacking the law clerk of the judge overseeing his bank fraud trial in New York—blatantly violating the court’s gag order—and lawyers on both sides have just been notified that hell is nigh.
The New York Attorney General’s Office and the former president’s defense lawyers were told late Thursday that the issue will come up Friday morning in court, according to a source with knowledge of those discussions.
Trump put up a post on Truth Social. And it also went up on this campaign website. It was taken down on Truth Social, but it was never taken down on his campaign website.
Judge Engoron threatens Donald Trump with PRISON for violating his gag order. Trump didn't remove the Truth Social post berating Engoron's staff from his campaign website.
He just opened court with this:
In NY, a fine, and a ban from doing business in the state for him and his family
I am more worried about the Georgia trial, which I think has a serious chance of jail
I thought you meant just for violating the gag order
He was fined 5 grand today for that
But yes, I agree these are serious cases.
In NY, revoking his business certificates and putting his companies into receivership has already happened. He is appealing, but that is where it stands so far and as you point out more can happen after the trial
