22. Why not remove crooked con-man trump from all courtrooms
Mon Apr 15, 2024, 01:37 PM
Apr 15

as punishment? It would be much better than a "fine".

Often defendants watch their own trials via Zoom where the Courts can control them and even mute them when necessary. If there is going to be drama anyway, why not make it count as proof of truth and sanity from "The other side"? (which would be very good thing)

As long as defendant trump can see and hear what's going on.. what's the problem? I guess his capitulating lawyers could use 'removing him and his cancerous voice' as another (bogus) strike against 'Freedom of Speech'

But the disgraced ex-president needs to be punished in a way the whole world can see - punished with anything that will push back against Maga's urgent normalization of his pathetic, infectious and flourishing mental illness.
