We’ve seen politicians go to jail. We’ve seen a vice president of the United States — Spiro Agnew — resign to avoid any chance of going to jail. We have seen President Richard Nixon pardoned in order to keep him out of jail.
What we have never seen is a former president of the United States in jail. But now that is a real possibility, because Donald Trump can’t shut up and abide by a simple gag order.
Justice Juan Merchan has repeatedly tried to enforce his gag order with fines. Trump pays the fines and keeps violating the gag order.
Merchan, who is overseeing Trump’s New York trial on charges of election interference through the use of hush money, has said he has no interest in making history by putting Trump behind bars.

Problem is, too many leftists are wetting themselves with excitement at the thought, and actually believe and support this guy.
Sad because, by putting his career above the truth, Juan sacrificed both his career and his reputation for being truthful.

Uh, no. Donald Trump can’t shut up and abide by an unconstitutional gag order.
Trump is the presumptive presidential nominee of a major political party. Any attempt to quiet him is morally repugnant, an attempt to interfere in a federal election, and a violation of the 1A (freedom of speech).
However, I wouldn’t be one bit surprised if this fascist judge jails him anyway. That’s just the way “progressives” roll these days.
I think he will go to jail.
This is the panic stage. The IC and .gov feels it has to do anything to stop Trump.
This would be a step too far. Many will not live in the Soviet Union. Many will realize here is nothing left to lose.
Beware such men.
juan williams, racist piece of lying Lefty garbage.
Juan’s not trying to convince us. He’s trying to re-ingratiate himself with the lefties after almost disappearing. Look for a new book coming out soon.
He had to quit The Five because he was too scared to back into the studio because
of “COVID.”
2024 is going to be an “interesting” year
It’s already been “interesting” so far...
Oh I won’t be surprised if they get a conviction regardless of the facts... there is NOTHING they won’t do to make this happen
Jailing Trump would ensure his election. The spectacle of Biden’s minions jailing Trump will be a campaign gift to Trump.
DJT will gain an additional 1o million votes if the DemoNaziCommies put him in gaol for even a single day
Then they’ll kill him.
I read a book recently. It was called "How to place a target on yourself, your family, and your friends, for life."
Remember he wrote a book about phony black leaders undermining America? Made me think he was a rational one. All he did was throw us a bone. I do believe he condemned Sharpton/Jackson. Now I do think there was a wink-wink involved. They both laughed all the way to the bank.
Juan must be paid very well to play the stupid guy all the time.
The idiocy that spews from his mouth...I decided I can’t watch anything that he’s on. He’s beyond stupid; Fox must pay him to say “opposite” stuff to provide “controversy” for any discussion.
Only if Trump is killed in prison, or “takes his own life” can this be a win for the left.
Oh. I thought it was because he was an idiot. Half a dozen of one, six of the other.
The Hill may as well be Media Matters.
On the scale of worthless human beings, I have difficulty knowing who ranks higher on the list, Juan Williams or Al Sharpton...
