Judge Threatens to Jail Trump Over Gag Order, Finds Him in Contempt for 10th Time: A Closer Look - Late Night with Seth Meyers

Late Night with Seth Meyers

I'm worn out with the threats from judges. I'm ready to see a judge - any judge - have the courage to actually hold Trump accountable for the first time in his life.
You've obviously never been a criminal defendant 😂
💯 sick of it
@@almightymachine9930really?
@@almightymachine9930not the flex you think it is
👴🏻🥃 LUKE FROM MARRIAGE......WITH CHILDREN IN 24
Trump: " I can't even talk because I have a gag order. "
Public: " Then why is your mouth flapping? Go away! "
👴🏻🥃 TRUMP IN 24 MAKE AMERICA BRING SMELLEVISION AGAIN
trator tot sounds even more so at 1.5x speed
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Its funny cus its true
Indeed I wish he would go away
Tim Scott being unable to answer "yes" or "no" to such a simple question is just embarrassing.
How Americans can make Mr Scott a senator is unfuckingbelievable!
@@drgeoffangel5422 One could say the same that MTG being in Congress is exhibit A . . . but I digress.
'not willing to abide by the will of We, the people' ..
I´d call that treasonous for an Elected Representative.
Could you even trust this man to run a Hot-dog stand?
He did, though. As she asked the question, he shook his head. There was the real answer.
@@Rilianawakened321 😂 What about making a traitor and crook the president? You can't get any lower than that! 😎😂
Yes Hannity, this is America, where NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW! We, the people need accountability!
The way Tim Scot answered that simple "Yes" or "No" question is why people are leaving his stupid party.
I love how he took that question as "proof" that NBC is a propaganda machine for the Democrats. I wonder if he is admitting that the Democrats are the only party who wants to maintain our democracy while the Republicans are looking to turn us in to an autocracy if not a full-fledged dictatorship.
He wants inflation to go away and get “back” to when unemployment was low. I think he forgets why there is inflation, a pandemic. And, unemployment is the lowest it has ever been in the country. Dude is a buffoon…and an Uncle Tom.
"Tim, if you witnessed Trump kill JD Vance for not being obsequious enough, would you want to take over as his VP?"
"Sure thing, because Trump is going to bring down inflation!"
This, so much this. Just a bunch of bullshit artists, every one of them.
this is where non-verbal communication comes in clutch. every single time she asks him "yes or no?" he shakes his head no. he's telling you the answer right there.
I can't believe we now live in one of those countries where committing to accepting the results of an election is treated as a gotcha question.
I tried to translate your sentence butI failed. (not a native speaker) Could you rephrase?
@@Aaackermann A "gotcha" question is a question someone doesn't want to answer, because any answer will make them look bad. In this case, if the guy said he will accept the results no matter who wins, then he will look disloyal to Trump. If he says he won't accept the results, then he can be called crazy or disloyal to Americans.
@@Twosies20 Too bad that The Guy (Senator Scott) in theory SWORE AN OATH OF LOYALTY TO *THE U.S. CONSTITUTION.*
@@Twosies20 have you got it now???? was that enough rephrasing...how about timmy is the same kind of asswipe as von shitzynpants
@@Twosies20 Thanks.
I think the safety goggles add to the bit. Those few extra seconds of "Let me just put these on" before smashing the answering machine really sold it for me.
They're not goggles though. They're glasses. Like these 👉😎.
😁
"Loch, which is Scottish for Lago" ... Hilarious 😂😂
"you are the former president, and possibly the next as well" I thought Lady Justice was blind. why does his status mean anything in court? I'm embarrassed for the USA. I feel sad for you guys.
The judge is obviously afraid of him
Justice is willfully blindfolded. She turns a blind eye to the rich and powerful and she chooses not to punish people like trump. That Bitxh ain’t blind. She’s complacent.
We are sad and embarrassed, too. Even the ones who won't admit it.
@@gregbors8364 Not afraid of him, afraid of the domestic terrorists who obey his every command.
💕🌎💕
Just throw him in jail. If that was anyone else they would have been in jail two weeks ago
If it was anyone of us, we would’ve been in jail for life
@@tylerhackner9731 - 💯
Correction: Anyone else would've been in jail 2 or 3 YEARS ago
Absolutely. However.... putting him in jail at this point plays in to.his hands. I think that's why the judge is being a bit more lenient ( I hope that's the main reason anyway).
@@andyb1653 Or back in the 90s, when he was first caught money laundering...
Seth and his writers have an award-worthy episode right here. Easily❤️
You missed a great opportunity for the book trump was reading to be obviously upside down
How do people actually think this man is smart enough to be president?
We don't. It is other people that think he is. You know, the really, really stupid people.
My question exactly!
Even an idiot looks smart to an imbecile.
It's just people dumber than him.
Unfortunately it's because he is immensely smarter than them. The walking dead.
The fact that someone might become president is no reason not to jail them for jail-able offenses
💯
People should just announce that they are running for president from now on when they are charged with a crime.
If anything it's more of a reason. Potentially becoming president doesn't make you immune to the law!
Apparently numerous convicted Jan 6 insurrectionists are running for office this upcoming election. How can a convicted felon not be allowed to vote in America, but be able to be voted into political office in America ?? Make it make sense 🤷♀️ I think you guys have to start amending that constitution you all are so proud of. Just saying ♥️🇨🇦
@@publicuser2534Does seem the logical conclusion.
Finally threatening jail the rest of us would've went to jail weeks ago.
Dear Lord, Tim. How far down are you willing to sink or far up are you willing to crawl? Appeasement has never been an indication of strong character.
Fox is the ultimate embodiment of the term willfully ignorant lol.
All that trash on Fox lies gets paid millions per each!
You said "fascist collaborators" wrong.
*Overpaid propagandists 🤠
IF only. Fox is SCRIPTED, the exact phrasing of EVERY talking point is agreed upon and the Propaganda Machine continues undermining our democratic system.
*delusional gracists
Hannity is such a tool
Agreed. He is talking about America and the right to speak. What about the voters having their right taken away let's talk about that Hannity!
He is Beavis to tRump's Butthead.
That would imply he's useful.
Jep and he makes millions doing it. Smart man - he found the ultimate product easily sold to the mentally lacking... I've been trying to find a $5 product that appeals to that demographic group for over 30 years while still being able to like myself in the mirror. Guess the one doesn't go with the other...
Hannity is so ignorant it's insane that people watch him.
threats do not equal justice or equality... Make Accountability Great Again
Tim Scott! Hey! The American people DID choose to fire DT. Y’all didn’t want to accept it. Ugh 😑
It’s completely beyond me why ANYONE would want to be Trump’s vice president.
You might say they're out of their dog gone mind. 😢😬
Money, it's always about money.
It's completely beyond me why anyone would want trump to be president.
Gallows humor.
Why would anyone want DJT as their president???!!!! 🌊🇺🇸💙
Trump "Im not allowed to talk about it..."
proceeds to talk about it.
'That is my statement.' I guess that works for a lot of answers you'd like to dodge 😂!
The “statement to your spouse “was the funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time You have quite a way of describing these outrageous headlines. Kudos to your writers!
i replayed that part like nine times, dying laughing 🤣
Scott's statements SHOULD be disqualifying him from any sort of office in the US.
jan 6th could happen again with bozos like this in office
The fact that he's a MAGA disqualifies him.
Scott is not supporting democracy (aka accepting fair and democratic elections) and is supporting a fascist. This is not just qualifying for being a Republican candidate, it is their standard a candidate must reach. It shouldn't be, but it is.
@@paulrichards6894 No it wouldn't since Trumps team is already preparing to not let anybody stop their coup next time. They want a fascist takeover and they are planning ahead this time around.
Who voted this idiot in- it’s the people who voted him in and maybe now vote him out
It's incredible a man fighting 91 felony counts is still free in the first place!!!!! 91!!!! Our justice system is a joke.
Actually, some were dropped in Georgia, so its down to 88, I think.
@@timothyball3144 I think ur right .. 3 were dropped
@@nartouzumaki8232They can be refiled.
biden has taken the lead mostly, and 45 wont be pres again ever! and polls mean nothing now!
I say it’s time to remove all the scales ⚖️ representing equal justice throughout the USA!! They’re meaningless!
If this guy ever gets voted back into the White House, then the American experiment has truly failed in epic proportions
It's official, your Nessie impression is your best impression. I hope to hear it more frequently.
He told them to protest peacefully! He specifically said, "ya gotta fight like hell or you're not gonna have a country anymore!" Y'know...peaceful things!
....and let us not forget Ghouliani's famous words of peace...."Let’s have trial by combat"
But of course, he meant that purely metaphorically. Despite not knowing what a metaphor is.
It's like Tim Scott's blocked out the fact that people DID die that day, and there were cops who killed themselves because of the PTSD
Part of the problem is the vague language - one could interpret it as fight via the legal system, fight at the ballot box by voting, etc. :/
@robertlloyd122 no because it's coupled calls to march to the capitol to obstruct an official proceding. It's not vague. It was specific, and we all saw the insurrection.
No other defendant would even have one criminal contempt charge without spending a night in jail. Further proof that we have a two-tiered justice system in this country.
Time to remove all the ⚖️ scales of equal justice from all court rooms in the USA! They are literally meaningless!
🗣 IM PREGNANT CHAIN WE GOTTA TALK IM PREGNANT
There was a guy in my area who was involved in a divorce case and charged with contempt of court because they thought he was hiding assets. He spent over a year in jail.

👴🏻🥃 BILL COSBY IN 24
The inscription on the Simpson's courthouse says "Justice for Most." That seems accurate.
Thank you , Seth. Helping America. That is my statement!
The only reasonable answer to Tim Scott's unhinged ramblings would have been: "I take that as a 'No!'"
I went in for surgery the other day and I commented on how cold the surgical ward was. 🥶❄️ Apparently, it’s kept cold to restrict the growth of harmful bacteria, viruses and other nasties. 💩😷 That certainly explains the Trump court temperature choice. 🤣
Walmart in my town is the same for the same reasons.
that's a myth. watch Max Feinstein's (A licensed anesthesiologist) video about it, where he explains that the lower temperature doesn't prevent infection and is there to keep the surgeon comfortable, as they will be under a lot of bright and hot lights
I came to say this exact thing 😂😂😂
"I'm being Sandbagged !" No Donni your Diaper is full
That was the best response yet, I applaud you
What a suck up Scott is. I can't believe Scott believed himself to be Presidential material. Not even close.
Seth, I love you SO much! Honestly, you REALLY make me laugh out loud! Thank you, & your writers, for all that you do.
Anyone else would’ve been in a cell after count 2 of violating the gag order. Why in the heck is the press giving him all this free coverage AGAIN outside the courtroom? ENOUGH
News crews are there in case something crazy happens, like him confessing, or pooping himself, or someone trying to unalive him. We don't have to like it, but they want to get the scoop in real time
Why the Press Coverage? The owners WANT him as Fuhrer. Then ALL the money belong to them. And all the power. It's called Fascism. Look it up. Also, he is CLICKBAIT!
They have commercials to feed.
Trump the chump doesn't deserve a media platform of any kind until this crap is decided
Everyone else says, "I'm sorry but I cannot comment on current litigation." This guy......⚖️🗽⚖️
That response from Tim Scott is unacceptable for a senator.
Ol two eyes done it again!!!
So, Scott is on record that he WILL commit treason.
After 10 breaches of the gag order, it's bewildering why the former guy isn't behind bars yet. Ten chances and still free? It's high time for justice. Enough is enough.
Merchan is playing it cool, probably rightfully. Third strike, Trump had better be headed for jail.
Reporters should interrupt his verbal diatribe and shout questions as to his criminal cases.
Yeah! He has no power to silence them anymore!
verbal diarrhea *
fixed it for you
👗⬅️YOURS??
They ask questions and he just ignores them.
He'll just leave. But reporters SHOULD just ALL GO HOME and leave him with NO coverage. Or give EQUAL TIME TO BIDEN. But the Fairness Doctrine was repealed by Republican #1, Ronnie Reagan. HE gave us ALL of this - health care bankruptcies, lack of unions, benefits, retirement or housing while obscene profits go to shareholders. We were BOUGHT OUT!
You know: I'm already looking forward to the Corrections follow-up.
By openly stating that he is treating TFG like a King by not jailing him because he's a former President (when justice is supposed to be blind!), Merchan is the sole person responsible who has "not only called into question the integrity, and therefore the legitimacy of these proceedings, but again raised the specter of fear for the safety of the jurors and their loved ones". He's basically instructing the jury to find TFG not guilty because he is incapable of protecting them and their families. SHAME! 🤬
funny how he never stops talking about how the gag order stops him from talking ...
Calling it an ice box instead of a refrigerator is really going to show people how young and hip he is
Good point like the movie refences he makes are from last millennium, unless he forced in a cameo for himself
It's giving him an ague in the humours!
My mother is 92 it always makes me laugh when she refers to the freezer as the "ice box"
LOL! Good point!😂
could've called it Frieza to connect with the millenials...
CORRECTION: Those weren’t safety goggles, they were safety glasses.
Agreed, those were obviously safety glasses not goggles; however, a face shield would have been better and offered superior protection. Why pay the plastic surgeons even more to keep that Emmy nominated and occasionally winning, smile intact?
they should have also said, "Don't swing those glasses around, lest you poke your eye out"
"...I'm gonna go in the icebox now."
I'm all for them putting you on ice, Donnie. All for it.
you're too old to be president if you still refer to a freezer as an icebox
@@Lv-nq9qzyup! Such a crybaby
Anyone with a small child knows that the child knows that a threat to do something means absolutely nothing if it's obvious that the person making the threat will never do it.
"Mr. Trump, stop threatening the jurors by the time I count to 5, or there will be consequences! 1,2,3,4, 4 and a half, 4 and 3 fourths, . . ."
This. This is THE comment.
To Tim Scott, I say "Your so-called answer is why so many people see the Republican Party as an extension of fascism"
Any other person would end up in jail. Lock his ass up already.
I don't remember hearing any outrage about gag orders existing before this lmao actual cult
Amen!
I'm getting so much simple joy knowing T**** is feeling miserable in the freezing cold courtroom. I just love that for me. 😂
🥃👴🏻 HI IM WEAR DISS 👗⬅️ AT THE MET GALA IN NYC
If trump wasn't complaining the cold he'd be complaining about the flies, because he'd covered by them.
Trump is not the only person in the courtroom. The reporters and the bailiffs haven’t said anything about the cold.
Lawrence O'Donnell did a segment recently about how having to show up to court, sit still and *not talk* is kinda akin to him being in jail. Have to enjoy the small wins. 🎉
I guess that's all that we have they're not going to throw him in jail so at least he can freeze his ass off 👍😉
I absolutely love the "came up to me, big X, strong X, tears streaming" bit
There were digital answering machines and voice mail before everyone had cell phones. When our first answering machine broke in the early to mid 90s,, we got one that didn't need a physical tape.
A $9,000 fine for all the broken gag orders is an insult to all Americans who clung to the fiction that the system was still working and there was still some semblance of law and order. Openly pissing in our faces and telling us it's rain.
Yes, they will however still make an 'example' of you or I should we step out of line once.
Unfortunately, the judge was constrained by the law. The choice was a $1000 fine or jail.
You must be brand new money always talked and b******* always walked
Actually, it's the reich-wing Supreme Court that is pissing all over the Constitution...
% of for all fines and taxes in the United States.
Plus we need laws that stop judges from lying about how much people earn.
Throw the man in jail already

They’re trying!!!!
Tim Scott is an embarrassment.
Scottish accent got you the like. It was almost so good hahaha.
Nobody seems to realize he has already violated the gag order ten times, not two times. Ten times is enough.
10 times too many!
If he violated the gag order 10 times does he get a free sandwich at Subway?
Thirty strikes… you’re…warned again.
Poor antique answering machine, it survived 3 decades to die on A Closer Look
Watch,the answering machine will resurface on Corrections. The jackals will save it.
Seth has become Death, destroyer of answering machines.
I think it was a prop. You wouldn’t want to destroy a vintage $5 eBay treasure.
Old Two Eyes strikes again. And again. And again. And again.
I shed a tear for it.
Yup, our voices will be heard!!!!!🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
Props to the NBC safety officer for saving Seth’s eyes!
Seth's "Jeanine Pirro" impression 3:44 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🎯
Of course J.D. Vance isn't worried about getting Penced. He'll throw out the Constitution at Trump's bidding without even the bare minimum of pushback.
I now so want the MAGA crowds to get worked up over Vance's old statements comparing Trump to Hitler, and then threaten to to make him sleep with the fishes, just to see JD change his tune again.
Hillbilly Energy
@@sherinameless1618 If only...but they don't notice the Dear Leader contradicting himself five times in as few minutes, they'll probably forget J.D.'s past disloyalty as soon as Trump anoints him a good boy. Until of course he becomes Inconvenient and thrown out in the cold like all Trump's discarded tools!
Where I come from, we call getting Penced,
Getting No. 2’d
@@sherinameless1618 I'm pretty sure I wrote a sensible enough reply but CZcams seems to have tossed it into the comment black hole so I'll just say...that sounds like a good time 😉 OTOH I bet you could get J.D. to change his tune just by waving a fiver in front of him.
Hannity: "I thought we lived in the United States of America." and "Is this still America?"
Did he just do a Randy from South Park?
As a Scott I appreciate Seth's nessie impression made me lol
So that "lawyer" straight up told people they should commit crimes, and did it on national television.
Throw that clown in jail! How many times does he get to violate the gag order? IS He Above the Law?
yea he is...whop told u he wasnt?u got lied too bud b carefull who u listen too
He always is, never even got anything that stick, all those trials won't matter when he is back in office and pardon himself of any previous wrongdoing.
And from how things look, he got a fair shot to be the next president.
Biden still support Gaza Massacre and Veto Palestine from officially entering U.N Membership.
A lot of Palestine supporters gonna vote against Biden or abstaining, and most of them was Biden voter in previous election.
While most Trump supporters will be voting in upcoming election.
Both of these presidential candidates feels disgusting for young voters.
Right !!!!😠
It's CONCEDED
rump is INSANE
He's not above shitting his pants while sleeping on his first week on trial.
itd be a nightmare to lock him up. As he needs USSS bodyguards
Woke up late watched this laughed so hard I woke up my roommates with rolling laughter. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Oh boy. The jackals will not be happy with the way you hit a hammer Seth.
That $10,000 he's paying in 'inconsequential' fines would change my life.
All legal fines should be means tested... it is another lie right in our faces.
Yeah, a fine of that size would hurt many of us
10 grand...you need a new used Kia?
@@youtubegarbage7876 garbage is as garbage does
@@stevenmoore3480 Whats the lie?
The irony is that a regular civilian could issue the same threats but it would not be dangerous, because regular civilians have no fan base. But would a regular civilian be left free doing this?
Cult base.*
As empty as I feel whenever Seth & Co. go on hiatus, honesty forces me to concede he's noticeably energized afterward. So kudos to all.
I would like to mention that I appreciate that they thought of putting on safety glasses before smashing the answering machine. Seth doesn't have shortage of almost poking out his eye, so it was very appropriate.
I’m just here for the people correcting Seth on safety “goggles” vs safety glasses 😂
Here for the jackals seeking fame and Corrections glory, huh.
That's jackal behaviour....
That’s too easy! And yet, I totally missed it. Good one Jackal!
All these steps to avoid putting him behind bars. What’s next? Let him write down ‘I will not violate my gag order’ ten times on a piece of paper? Also: what happened to the fact he is released for other trials one the condition he does not commit new crimes? As he did, since the judge ruled on it last time he violated the gag order, he should be behind bars now!
Health and safety saves lives, kids.
They went out and bought an old answering machine for that bit.
“You can keep asking, but I’m not gonna give you an answer.”-Tim Scott
9:50 The body language gave him away.
@@lukewright9031 His lack of a real answer gave him away, but his body language definitely confirms. I think we all knew the answer before the question was even asked though.
I will be so happy when he is no longer in the news, in the meatime, I'm so thankful for the comedic help through this hard time for intelligent, respectful humans, thank you Seth!
trump will make sure he is always in the news. He's been doing it for over 40 years, and he will not want to stop seeing himself on tv and in the news.
@@hannahm7373 I know but. 🤮
Great show myMan & your writers...very good show! Thanks!
No offense, but that was the cutest answering machine smash I've ever seen.
We call them "refrigerators" now, Donald.
he's too old to be president
I was just wondering how J.D. Vance came to the conclusion that fight like hell translates to protest peacefully 🤦
It can't be that cold. One juror chose to just wear a t-shirt.
Tim you look so uncomfortable. You should stop this - it’s embarrassing for all of us.
As a black man, this dude is the equivalent of one of us rooting for a lynching while attending a KKK rally. I’m personally embarrassed/disgusted when I see one of us supporting a party of well documented racists/bigots/misogynists.
If Trump is complaining about being cold, can't he afford warm clothing ? Thermo clothes exist you know. Very comfortable underneath a suit as well.
He’s beyond a joke!!
Tis!
That lady’s laugh/cackle at the thought of trump taking a stroll and reading a book turned that joke into gold
I don't know why, but the whole answering machine bit, had me laughing so hard.
As a well educated German citizen, I can confirm:
Trump is indeed America's Hit...
😂😂😂 From a Scotsman, Seth nailed our accent. Brilliant. 🤣
He clearly thinks a short prison stint is going to be a big fundraising opportunity. At this point I'm willing to risk that just to have a few days of peace and quiet.
You ARE JUST THE BEST
Bro busted out a real answering machine. 😂
This is ridiculous!! They give him days off so he can campaign. And they let him continue to violate his 'Gag-Order' repeatedly. If he was anyone else he'd be in Jail.
Any normal person would've been behind bars already
Agreed, and most of them pose much less of a threat.
Yes, Trump is very abnormal. Perhaps instead of jail, a cozy padded room?
Corrections: You called your safety glasses “safety goggles”.
Thank you for not tacking on a podcast ad at the end of this.
9:30 I'd say Tim Scott should be ashamed of himself but calling him a Republican pretty much covers it. 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏽♀️
