- Donald Trump has allegedly violated the gag order in his New York criminal trial more than a dozen times. Former federal prosecutor Renato Mariotti shares how the judge may be delaying any penalties for Trump to leave the threat "hanging over" his lawyers so they rein in their client.

#Trump #Court #GagOrder
Some on the Supreme Court should be on trial! So pathetic!
When someone is digging their own grave, let them keep digging.
Great point. Well said 🎉
God bless President Trump we need you back and finish draining the swamp I pray for you
I to find this a great point.💯 mic drop . So inspirational.
@@johnborgese4547Is this spam?
@@suehowie152 It's wasted sperm if anything.
Conviction on criminal contempt for violating the gag order is a violation of the terms for release on bail in the cases in DC and Georgia. The penalty is imprisonment pending trial, which would happen to any other defendant.
Fantastic point
This would delay the case. Trump can appeal the imprisonment.
Conviction of another crime is not required for revocation of bail; accusation alone can suffice.
Suppose a man was arrested for bank robbery and at his arraignment was released on bail. A condition of his bail is that he not commit any crime. While awaiting trial, he robs a different bank in a separate jurisdiction and is arrested. The first court is not going to wait for his conviction on the second bank robbery, they’ll just revoke his bail and remand him into custody.
Hes rich so the laws are different for him
@@thehvachacker
Not true. The case can continue while Trump is in jail. Happens all the time.
Msnbc and CNN (all news outlets) need to stop referring to this as hush money trial.
It makes it sound so petty.
They're only interested in the clicks dirty conniving bstds
Exactly. It is a business fraud and election interference case.
HUSH MONEY TRIAL 😂😂
The main alternative is referring to it as a campaign documents case, which would risk confusion in the public's eyes with the classified documents case.
This is absolutely ridiculous! Anyone else would have been put behind bars by now. Fines will never stop Trump from violating the gag order, because he pays them with his donors money. If you want him to stop, put him in time out where he doesn't have access to his phone!
Proof that you guys have a two tier law system... One for you and one for your rich ppl😂😂😂
We have a two tiered justice system. Trump has violated his gag order many times. Too many for that matter. Put Trump in jail, even if it is a matter of hours between trials. Of course he'll kick and scream and cry unfair, but least half the nation will support it.
Exactly. This is a joke. The whole system is s puppet play. Some black kid accused of stealing a car would have gotten 10 years by the time Trump pushed the submit button on Twitter X uttering his latest threats against witnesses and the jury.
When is there going to be a judge with balls? Ooooooo, they're so afraid of what some unhinged MAGA nut job will do. Ooooooooo, they're so afraid that uber-wimp, Jesse Watters, might say something bad about the judge on Fox News. Oooooooo, they're so afraid to put a former President behind bars... It is not Trump's threats, or MAGA crazies that will lead us to a civil war. It is the complacency and cowardice and failure of the system to deal with them while they can.
President Trump is not just anybody. You are beneath him peasant😂😂😂
@@jbegood2582 yeah, like the really rich dude from NC who SAed a 2 year old and got probation.
Plan now to drive your family and friends to vote. The world can’t afford this dictator version of Trump as president.
Every one will vote Trump except the machines
@miterbenisdurty3862 feel free 😂
Yes, the world can. It's called destiny
@@miterbenisdurty3862Everyone? You sure about that?
@@Sag301Sigh
He's clearly displayed to the 🌍 world what he stands for, it's time to BELIEVE HIM. Show him consecutively at the voting booth via a NO VOTE, NOT INTERESTED.
Others have opined, and I tend to agree, that the judge is giving him as much leeway as he can to avoid the possibility of a mistrial or reason for appeal.
The judge wants to get it right, although any other defendant would certainly be punished for the same antics.
If he's in prison he's not in court and imagine all the appeals/delays he'd try for. The judge is probably saving them up till the end when he can throw them all at him and then lock him up.
Well, what a steaming pantload! We, the American people, _deserve_ to see Donald Trump held to account for his actions.
I don't want his lawyers to "rein him in"; I want to see him pay for what he's done!
I remain curious - if Trump is truly civic minded and truly believes that the President should have absolute immunity, why did he not take this matter to SCOTUS during his 1st Impeachment Trial or even argue it during that trial?
You'll find out. Patience
Excellent point.
The crux of his argument is that if the president is not impeached and convicted by the Senate, he can't be indicted and convicted. Of course, the argument in his second impeachment was that since he was leaving office, he couldn't be impeached and prosecutors would have to indict him. The whole thing is flimsy and legally unsound
His lawyer actually argued he shouldn't be impeached because a criminal court would deal with it. Pick a lane Trump
@@robinantonio8870
Then Senate leader Mitch McConnell said it.
VOTE BLUE, across the senate,house and President! 💙💙

Thank you very much there Mr. Roboto
@@johnborgese4547 News Flash john. Trump is not president. And you can ask me all you want, but I will not bless ex-president Trump.

A violated the gag order obviously multiple times, stick him in jail for a couple nights
Don't you get it it would just make him more popular.
How exctly did Trump violate a gag order? What exactly did he say? None of you liberals can answer that question.
Throw him in jail for life. Get rid of him.
God bless President Trump we need you back and finish draining the swamp I pray for you
@@walterheublein5848 So, you want to throw people you don't like into prison for life? Can you explain how that is less dangerous than anything Trump has done?

vote republican
Simple; lower court just has to rule all Trumps act that are unlawful are in fact unlawful, done and done. Take 2 seconds
There would probably be multiple hearings and it would take a minimum of a week or two.
There would have to be evidentiary hearings, etc. It'll drag out however long it takes to protect Trump.
Sadly, not the case due to SCOTUS election interference.
Sooner or later, the people what a CONMAN D.T. is. They will realize they don't want to back the lying deceitful Traitor any more. 🔮 He will go to Jail.
Failure to hold the person who conspired to Interfere in an Election accountable, is dangerous to the future stability of America's Democracy.
If the limit on fines is $1000, just count each follower on Truth Social as a separate violation of the gag order. That way, he will notice!
If I was Trump I would be worried about the delay. The Judge may be waiting for the Secret Service to make arrangements to protect Trump in jail.
Justice delayed is justice denied!!! Time for this judge to be removed from the case and investigated!!!!
💙💙💙💙💙
If SCOTUS grants Presidential immunity, then I'm going to run for President and if I win I'm going to deposit $1 trillion from the Treasury into my account and then resign the next day.😂
Your defense "United States vs Donald Trump " you will win your case, the law should be equal for evryone.
If SCOTUS grants presidential immunity, then Biden's next executive order will result in grim circumstances.
Biden needs to do what Trump's lawyer said a president can do with immunity.
Trillions of dollars go missing every year with no consequences for the money being "missing". What you're talking about already goes on every year with no consequences to the person who stole the money.
In fact, the government has found government employees who have Stolen $100,000 to $500,000 Tax dollars and the federal employees are not fired and are not prosecuted for embezzlement. The federal government simply asks the employee to give the money back.
@@FlyOverZone And the IRS has been unable to collect hundreds of billions in unpaid taxes year after year due to inadequate funding.
I'm absolutely terrified of these red hats and their wyt rage. Vote blue to save our democracy. 💙💙

This whole discussion is about how this is a LOT more than just a "hush money" case, yet look at the video title. Way to go, MSNBC.
None should be exempted from the law. Yes, you can have pardon but not immunity. Immunity means someone is above the law of the land.
Pardons shouldn’t be a thing either.
Biden deserves to paid for His crimes.
Sickening
I’m canceling my subscription to The NY Times for running a peace saying the case is weak🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Guilty as charges
Jonathan, Nice Threads ! Sharp Dressed Man !
Give him this one warning, and then its jail. 30 days per infraction. That way better then I would get. Or you.
How about 10 seconds in a holding cell, with clanging door?
you mean 10 days? or more??

@@johnborgese4547 Clearly, you do not worship the God of Abraham.

Outstanding point. 'Holding prior bad behavior' over donald's lawyer's heads puts the problem on them. I never gave this approach a thought before. They now have incentive to make this ess-whole comply.
Why did MICHAEL COHEN do times and had to go back in again when the Corona hitted...
I agree but your English is catastrophic.
Call girls that deliver.... And show up...
.... to testify.... !!! 😮
Okay everyone, its TIME!...Let us ALL open our U.S. Constitution to page...
Is it Hope Hicks, the witness, that can link Trump to financial payments besides Cohen?
Nobody can rein in Trump. Give us a break.
I'm not buying this accesment of why no ruling on gag order yet.
Cowards these judges and prosecutors are WEAK letting this one man bring the entire system to its knees.
entire system to it's knees? really? that's a bit dramatic.
Wow that makes so much sense that this is aimed at Trumps attorneys.
It’s the election interference case not about “a hush money” case.
It's not election interference. Hiding information from people isn't election interference.
Throw smelly Don to jail
Because he is trump, and immune from normal justice apparently
The military is to follow CIC orders unless they are 'unlawful'. Unlawful means "against the law" with the law being the Constitution.
Unless they don't. Like Miley that promised to tell China of any military action against them in advance.
@@KaiserBlade Why do you lie. That's been debunked.
@@B4Zathras2257 I saw him say it. You're the liar.
The judge knows what he is doing is wrong. If it looks like there's no way to stop Trump from the Whitehouse he will himself be looking at legal problems.
The prosecution should ask for the judge to be recused, since he can't enforce simple court orders, which are basics of what a judge has to be able to. He is making a mockery out of the American justice system.
He's A Very Smart, Judge! I'm Sure, He Has His Reasons!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad someone said it because I do believe the judge is holding off until they possibly get some type of decision from the Supreme Court, but we will see
Why stopTrump while he is creating a negative impression of himself
He
Looks
DANGEROUS
In Africa they use the term "maga" to describe an unwitting fool. 😄
Excellent segment!😊💙
When trump is accusing others of doing something illegal, you know he already did the same thing
The Dozy Don will be convicted but he will never be jailed.😢
Convicted of what?
@@KaiserBlade Check it out for yourself!
The prosecutors made for election interference,
Mr Blanche denied that his client had done anything illegal
"even if he had attempted to sway voters."
"There's nothing wrong with trying to influence an election," Mr Blanche said.
"It's called democracy."
legal experts say opening statements are particularly important as an
opportunity to shape jurors' views on the case.
Mr Rahmani noted that the prosecution's efforts to elevate this to an
election interference case may be tough with a jury that includes two lawyers.
"It's clear the records were false business records, but to take that next step
to prove they were in furtherance of, or to cover up, a campaign finance
contribution,
Trust Fund Baby Trump missing Baron’s graduation is more punishment than gag order it seems!😂😂😂
Having Trump miss the graduation would be an answer to Barron’s prayer.
😢 you must not have any kids
@@Sag301 so they can be criminals like Trump or you!
Does anyone else see that Trump's hair is much darker than the thing sitting on top of his head?
Hey, if you support the defendant, you don't appreciate democracy, it's not possible.
Holy moses these clowns are unbelievabe!
Between that guys accent, and the crap audio, i could NOT understand one word from him about why Judge Merchan is holding off on the gag order..???

But according to the FOx legal scholars who fail to mention campaign finance issues.. say what's the crime.. yikes 😬😳
Just put him in a Jail cell and get it over with.

Totally not having any affairs. I have not dated in years,nor have I gotten hush money. About eight years ago here.
ZERO BALLS. Anyone else would have been in jail
not for this type of crime
Stand up fella
The first chance cheeto gets he is going to appeal back to the Supreme Court. Congradulations Justices, this case is now on a neverending "loop."
Well, the high and mighty Master Gorsuch did rule that a truck driver whose vehicle broke down in freezing weather had to remain more than 5 hours in the vehicle (without a heater) in order not to break his employment contract. Survival be damned, said Gorey.
So trump is just free to violate his gag orders as he fancies.
It's gagging.
What exctly did Trump say that violated a gag order? Why can't any of you answer that question?
God bless President Trump we need you back and finish draining the swamp I pray for you
@@keithm9337 When he mentioned the Judge's daughter. So that his crazy followers can harm her. Because he's a childish grown man, who can not accept being held accountable. Does that answer your question or do you need more?

could be postponing a decision to make arrangements for jail space
It’s because he’s afraid.
Cause their afraid of this clown
He is holding off because he knows there is nothing he can do about it. 😆😆🤷♀️🤷♀️
Give 5 days in jail
is he arranging security for him and his family, cause you know the unhinged will lose it if he is ever put in jail.
When the judges ask,"what are the facts which determine the hypothetical situation?" They are putting the cart in front of the horse.
Instead they should begin with, " what is the process?"
Why isn't it identical to other claims of government official immunity?
The reason the judge hasn't ruled on the gag order is because the Secret Service is busy decorating Trump's jail cell before he moves in
Easy, the judge is afraid.
❤
So according to the Supreme Court Judge you could be locked up for something you MIGHT DO???!!😮😮😮
None of this would have come to light if they did what Trump said they should do; pay Michael Cohen in cash.
Love Jonathan's reaction to a different viewpoint! Fun!
