In a weekend Truth Social blitz, the former president threatened to violate his gag order in the upcoming hush money trial

Donald Trump said Saturday he is willing to go to jail, but not for the crimes he’s accused of committing.

The presumptive GOP candidate said he wanted to violate the expanded gag order against him in his upcoming hush money trial. In fact, he would be willing to make himself a martyr and serve jail time if the judge found him guilty of violating the order.

In a three-part post on his tanking social media company, Truth Social, Trump lashed out at the New York judge who granted the gag order, Juan Merchan, whom Trump has repeatedly targeted in his posts along with Merchan’s daughter for being biased against him.

“IF this Partisan Hack wants to put me in the ‘clink’ for speaking the open and obvious TRUTH, I will gladly become a Modern Day Nelson Mandela – It will be my GREAT HONOR,” Trump wrote.

    Just keep pounding his pocketbook. He’ll gladly be a martyr, but he sure as fuck doesn’t want to be broke.
