Trump Tests D.C. Gag Order, Blasts 'Deranged' Special Counsel
Newsmax ^ | November 13, 2023 | Michael Katz

Posted on 11/13/2023 7:13:00 PM PST by Navy Patriot

Former President Donald Trump on Monday tested a gag order imposed on him by a Washington, D.C., judge by saying those prosecuting him in a federal case involving alleged attempts to subvert the 2020 election will end up in a "mental institution" with "Trump Derangement Syndrome."

U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan of the District of Columbia on Oct. 29 reimposed the gag order on Trump, the front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, prohibiting him from publicly criticizing prosecutors and likely witnesses in the case, as well as members of the court's staff. Trump has said the gag order infringes on his First Amendment right to free speech.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump went after Department of Justice (DOJ) special counsel Jack Smith, U.S. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, Andrew Weissmann, a former DOJ official, and the "losers and misfits" from the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

I called what they’re doing to him “hassle factor“. It’s what the hostile nations of the world are doing to the United States. It’s what I ran is doing to Israel. So I guess it’s contagious. This “hassle factor“ stuff.

Indeed they have proved beyond any doubt it’s where they belong reality is a stranger to them.

May I recommend Hotel California for them.

IIRC, it’s called Lawfare. The process is the punishment. Democrats are experts at executing it, Republicans need to catch-up and turn the tables on them in 2025.

Trump already dominated the debate without even being there. WTF should he abdicate such power?

When you’re already winning you don’t emulate the losers.

I don't know what weirdo "savant-like bots" is supposed to mean but since I only posted an on-topic opinion and got troll spammed as being "stupid" you sound like another butt-hurt Troll. Put some ice on that.

My post is not about Trump and his political rivals. I am posting about the article of this thread and the unfair courts.

You specifically mentioned the debates and said he should have been there.

Do you sincerely believe the moderators would have let him say anything about the malfeasance of the courts?
