Judge hits Donald Trump with gag order, Trump panics and begins deleting on social media
Earlier today, while he was in attendance at his own trial, Donald Trump somehow made a social media post viciously attacking the judge’s clerk.
The judge just hit Trump with a gag order in almost real time over his post attacking the judge’s clerk. If Trump violates a it by attacking the clerk again, he’ll presumably get tossed in a cell for contempt.
Trump and/or his handlers appear to be very worried about this. Trump’s post about the clerk has just been deleted. We’ll see how long Trump can hold his tongue. More news to come on this front, obviously.
