(It sounds like Trump can’t refer to Colangelo being sent by the DOJ to make sure Bragg brought the case. So when Biden taunts Trump during the debate he will violate the gag order if he says that the White House was behind the indictment.)
That’s exactly correct. Merchan and Alvin Bragg will have the evidence of Trump violating it on national TV.
You think a little contempt charge in NY will stop PDJT from saying whatever he likes at the debate?
Merchan will jail PDJT on July 11, or he won’t. What he won’t do - because he, like all leftits, is a coward - is jail PDJT for what he says during a presidential debate.
IMHO - Trump should go ahead and SHRED the gag order. There’s no reason for it. That it was imposed during the trial is a violation of free speech - the government doesn’t get to strip away that right just because of a trial. If anything, gag orders are only supposed to apply to GOVERNMENT (prosecution), to not taint a jury pool. A judge has no business doing this to a DEFENDANT - who has every right to speak against GOVERNMENT, especially when it is targeting him for a crime nobody else will ever be subjected to.
Where’s the SC?
45% of the voting public will vote Democrat no matter what, even if they don't like Biden. 45% will vote Republican no matter what, even if they don't like Trump. The battle is over the 10% in the middle who could be influenced or persuaded to go one way or the other. The phony convictions in Merchan's court may mean that 2 or 3% of the uncommitted voters in the middle won't vote for Trump, but the spectacle of a former President being bundled off to prison on such dubious grounds may not go over well with the other 7 or 8%.
