Huh - I had assumed the gag order would have been lifted at the conclusion of the trial. Continuing it through sentencing seemed punitive, but extending it beyond the conclusion of any pending appeals makes sense and seems perfectly fair.
It should continue in perpetuity, otherwise he’ll dox everyone involved as soon as its lifted, since he has the mental capacity of a toddler.
Sentencing is part of the trial. Until that’s done the trial is not over.
It should be extended beyond sentencing until any appeals have been concluded.
I hate that we’re talking about when he can be allowed to say inappropriately demeaning and threatening things about public servants.
Next step: bailing on the upcoming debate using the gag order as his excuse.
Lol, you’re most likely right. And no one will ask why attacking witnesses and court staff (which is the scope of the gag order) are things that are relevant to a presidential debate.
