Jail time will make him a martyr in the eyes of his followers. The judge is between a rock and a hard place. What can he do to preserve the integrity of the court? Warnings intensify the rhetoric; fines mean nothing because somehow Trump gets the money from guys like Hankey. Everything that happens to him is turned into campaign fodder. If the judge's daughter is physically hurt by a MAGA acolyte, Trump stays at arm's length. We failed to legally "cause and effect" his rhetoric and the Jan6 insurrection, despite the House Committee's brilliant development of the case against him. What options- short of an Act of God- are left to stop him?
