    I expect this courtroom will be a shitshow. Trump’s entire strategy right now seems to be to pray he can reclaim enough political power to keep himself out of prison. I fully expect him to play politics instead of law in that courtroom.

      Idt the judge will tolerate that. Contempt of court is at the sole discretion of the judge and she can toss him in the clink for the slightest thing.

        I think you’re right about that part. What I’m expecting is that baiting the judge will be part of trump’s strategy: “look at how terrible this judge is! I can’t even speak in my own defense!”

        The one think he is good at, is in generating mountains of bullshit to spin the narrative for his followers.
