What's the over/under on him holding a rally and/or going golfing on that day?

He's not going to go, and then the judge is not going to be lenient in the future.

There's still a hearing on Thursday about more gag order violations. I wouldn't expect more than fines there as well.

The defense probably sees a chance to sow doubt with Cohen.
Prosecution will let them try. Then they point out Trump hired him and that this has all been proven in a court case.
Plus he admitted it on television.

I hope the judge follows through with the jail threat, because everyone knows Trump will violate the gag order again.
Rep. McCarthy does not have the votes (14 times). Now, ousted!
Rep. Jordan does not have the votes (3 times).

That would be cute for 45 to be quiet. Well if he had the ability to take cues. I see this as the judge's hands being tied due to the law and also having to work it up to jail time instead of starting with it straight away.

Yeah that can hurt your standard person but even with whatever Trumps actual wealth is he can keep that up for a long time with 1000.
Trying is the first step towards failure, so just dont give it a shot and you cant dissapoint.

This is exactly the kind of thing the people whining about "the banks got paid?" are neglecting.

It's about how the bank would consider different risks because of the terms of the agreement.

And Daniels would not have been paid, and she likely would have gone elsewhere to tell her story.

Cohen did this all at the direction of Trump.

Defense is causing this trial to go on much longer than it needs to, as it won't concede to any stipulations (i.e. EVERYTHING is "you say X, prove it!!"

Thus, we have people being called to the stand to simply verify that records are records and videos are videos.

Take that up with the legislature. His hands are tied when it comes to fines and putting him in jail is tricky because 45 is trying to to martyr himself. Though this could be solved if his smart phone was taken away for the duration of the trial and he was given a dumb phone.

A lot of these people are very lucky that the capitol police officers showed so much restraint. An elderly woman physically fighting police could have ended really badly for her.

If the legislature were to pass a new law updating the upper limit of a fine, could that take effect during this trial, or would he be grandfathered in to the current law's limits because that was the state of things at the start of the trial? If there was a mistrial, would a new law apply to a new trial?

No, no and it would be ridiculously unconstitutional to pass a law for one billionaire.

The law is the way it is by design because New York cares about bail and sentence reform.

seems like it should be a percentage of earnings or net worth or somethkng

Remember all those reports from White House insiders about Trump showing up to work at 11:00 am and bailing at 4:00 pm? Having to be in court at 9:00 in the morning and having to stay into well in the afternoon has to be torture for him. Hopefully it's just a prelude to the schedule he'll be forced to keep as an inmate.

The dude never had to do an honest day's work in his life. This is the closest thing to work he's done. You just have to sit there and listen. Instead, he has the attention span and energy levels of my recently deceased 77-year-old father, who was confined to a wheelchair and diabetic.

What would be unconstitutional about updating a law when there are limits or loopholes that can be potentially exploited by bad faith actors?

Was it unconstitutional to update the Electoral Count Act to explicitly state that the VP's role in the counting of Electoral Votes is ceremonial and that they cannot reject votes after some in Trump's orbit wanted to try that tactic?

The first section of the 25th Amendment says "In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President." Why did that need to be passed in the mid-1960s? Because there was discussion about whether a VP actually becomes President or merely acts and serves as President in those instances (like in recent administrations when a President underwent anesthesia and the powers temporarily shifted to the VP), with some stating you only become President by winning an election.

Does Section 2 of the 25th Amendment provide a loophole around the 2 term limit set in the 22nd? The 22nd Amendment only sets limits for being "elected", so a strict reading of the text would allow a 2 termer to fill a VP vacancy through Senate confirmation and then potentially become President again. Same thing for the rest of the line of succession. The qualifications set in Article 2 (natural born citizen, 35 years old, 14 year resident) use "eligible" instead, so Madeleine Albright would've been skipped when she was Secretary of State.
