The judge overseeing the criminal trial of Donald J. Trump said he would be willing to jail the former president if he continued to violate his gag order. A banker who set up the account used to make a hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels is back on the stand.
I actually don’t mind the total, just keep fining him, 1k at a time, because the absolute pettiness of it probably irritates the fuck out of him.
“Small” amounts of cash really piss off people with money because it is more “real”. If you take someone like him and charge him 50k he wilñ fight it tooth and nail and then have his accountants find a way to siphon it off something else and he’s not affected…really.
But 1k? dude has to write a fucking check and that’s probably eating him up.
It’s the maximum fine for contempt. Judge needs to impose a day or two in jail to actually get through to Trump
