Justice Juan Merchan slams former president for his ‘audible’ remarks and gestures towards potential juror
The Manhattan judge presiding over Donald Trump’s hush money trial slammed the former president for “audibly” commenting about a juror and “gesticulating” towards her.
“I won’t tolerate it. I will not have any jurors intimidated in this courtroom,” said an incensed New York Justice Juan Merchan. “I want to make that crystal clear.”
The former president’s legal team, after questioning a first-round of potential jurors who could deliver a verdict against him, asked to speak with one potential juror who appeared to post a video on social media showing New Yorkers celebrating. Defence attorney Todd Blanche said it appeared to be anti-Trump.
No judge wants to be the first to find him in contempt and throw him in jail for the night. Why? I mutter under my breath for a parking ticket and my ass is in jail.
Rules for thee not for me.
Anyone of us plebeians would have been in jail a long time ago.
Or they’d take you down… Six Underground
The ground beneath your feet.
I’m sure the judge and the judge’s family’s lives would be immediately threatened by his deranged followers. So that could be part of it.
Thens he a fucking coward and they should get a judge who will not give in terrorist. I swear he could probably talk shit to the judges face continue to talk about the jury and they won’t do shit.
You just need your own violent cult.
Manhattan prosecutors have separately asked Judge Merchan to fine the former president $1,000 each for a series of social media posts that they argued violate a protective order that bans Mr Trump from publicly attacking witnesses and other parties in the case.
A fine? That’ll stop him for sure this time, right?
He does seem to be having money issues
Admonished? Did we get tired of “slammed”?
Don’t worry, they used “slammed” too
How about harshly rebuked? I was tired of slammed too
Every time they say slam I immediately put everyone in wrestling tights in my mind.
Slamma jamma ding dong
Edit: why am i getting ratio’d right now? Buncha joyless blowhards on here. I guess you guys like when news stories use “blast” and “slam” constantly?
Casting spells won’t work
Not with that attitude it won’t
Can I cast scrunch?
Idk…can you? If you’re asking if you may cast scrunch…then yes.
