Trump really wants to get someone killed & is way overdue for some jail time.

Via Kyle Griffin:

Days after a man was arrested for threatening Judge Arthur Engoron and New York AG Letitia James — saying he would kill them if they didn't stop the civil fraud case against Trump — Donald #Trump attacks both Engoron and James online.

@GottaLaff That probably has a lot to do with the AG's filing yesterday that his appeal bond may not meet the rather stringent NY state requirements for liquidity of the bond provider. Can the appeals court find him in contempt for the attacks?

Even if it's "covered by the first amendment", it's an incredibly stupid thing to do given that filing. He missed his deadline and his lawyers should be responding in court. He's kneecapping his defense team.

@GottaLaff I can't imagine any lawyer wanting to represent him - no matter how much his WinRed campaigns bring in to pay the lawyers, the best case is they figure out what's up and walk out.

@AlgoCompSynth The judges and lawyers are not affected by the gag orders

@GottaLaff Trump's lawyers are affected by Trump's conduct. Regardless of whether the letter of the gag order and the first amendment allow Trump's conduct, the conduct prevents the attorneys from doing their job.

@GottaLaff Ask Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis, Michael Cohen, John Eastman, Ty Cobb, ... if they wish they'd gotten away from Trump before they did. Giuliani still clings to his loyalty to Trump ... I got a text from his fundraising campaign for legal fees a couple of weeks ago.

@AlgoCompSynth Oh yes, agree with that.
