I don't think he's dropping the ball on jailing him. I think he's ready to do it even if it's just locking him in a room for a few hours.

Merchan: "I'm ready to jail you if you keep violating the gag order, but first here's a 9k fine for violating the gag order 9 times while it took me a week to decide on how to handle your previous gag order violations"

Merchan: "Actually, it would be cumbersome and I'm worried about your domestic terrorists, and that you could be the next President and punish me for holding you accountable to the law for the first time in your life, so I'd rather not put you in jail"

By all means, Merchan, fucking prove me and everybody else in my boat wrong. Sink that boat, bro, I'll gladly take that water on.

One thing I have filed in the back of my mind is this. Back during the civil fraud trial Jeffrey McConney had a meltdown on the witness stand. During said meltdown he mentioned that he had just been subpoenaed by the Southern District of New York which is the federal court. It makes me wonder if maybe there is something brewing with the IRS and Trump. Also from what I understand Letitia James forwarded all the stuff she used in her case to several agencies including the IRS.

Even if nothing was brewing, once it got out about the Chicago deal then something started.

Trump is currently in several hundred million dollars of extremely deep shit with the IRS.

I'm hoping his testimony is devastating to Trump's case and that it provokes an outburst that lands Trump in jail for contempt, in that order.

Well they're against the IRS because it audits and collects taxes from rich people, who are often criminals in how they conduct their taxation. Trump may at one point have been one of those people, however they're naturally against it because they see it as naturally against the wealthy, hence why they spread propaganda to their base such as "hiring all these new IRS agents will mean audits into you!", as they were saying before they removed the funding for them.

By this point the story has been painted and confirmed. There will be a few loose ends that he will tie up but I would suspect that 90% of what he says has already been said by others. The less new information Cohen provides the better.

I think after Cohen we may have three witnesses before the prosecution rests their case. I suspect one will be an expert witness. The last witness will usually be the second best witness the prosecution has.

Trump may be thumbing through pages with news stories
The papers that Donald Trump is thumbing through at the defense table may be news stories.
One of the pages has a giant photo printed on it.
As we've seen today and other days, the former president often comes into the courtroom with a large bundle of papers.

Probably more papers used to soothe him so he doesn't get thrown in jail for contempt.

They know the free airtime they gave him in '16 helped him win, and they're recklessly doing so again because they'd rather have a fascist that drives ratings than a milquetoast man who bores people into changing the channel.

There is literally zero chance that Melania isn't seeing other men or already in a serious affair. She legitimately doesn't care about Trump. Even Trump said she doesn't care about him.

We also know that when the Daniels incident took place he told her that him and Melania weren't even sharing the same room to sleep in.
