I'm afraid that's exactly where he's going to wind up.  He keeps reflecting on poll numbers.  He needs to realize that poll numbers mean absolutely nothing if the election is stolen again, or if he's behind bars.


Trump says he would 'be very proud to go to jail for our Constitution' following court appearance

ormer President Donald Trump told reporters he would "be very proud to go to jail for our Constitution" as he took aim at those involved in the prosecution.

Trump's comments came as he spoke after the third week of his NY v. Trump trial came to an end on Friday.

"If anything's mentioned against certain people, and you know who they are, certain people, anything's even mentioned, he wants to put me in jail," Trump told reporters as he displayed various media articles about the trial. "That could happen one day and I'd be very proud to go to jail for our Constitution."

"What he's doing is so unconstitutional," Trump said, referring to Judge Juan Merchan. "There's never been anything like it."

Trump also took aim at Merchan for telling the prosecution to tell Michael Cohen not to make statements about Trump or the case overall. Thus far, Merchan has refused to place Cohen under a gag order, which the defense previously requested.

"There is no gag order to Michael Cohen. What the judge did was amazing. Actually, it was amazing. Everybody can say ... whatever they want, but I'm not allowed to say anything about anybody. It's a disgrace," Trump said. And you see it, the media sees it and it's really very sad. If you look at the legal experts and the legal scholars, every one of them say this trial is a scam."

During his remarks to reporters after court, Trump also took aim at President Biden after he "lied" about the rate inflation when he took office in 2021.

"So now he comes out and he actually says, I guess with a straight face, but I'm not sure he knows what he's saying anyway, that it was 9% under Trump," the former president said.

Trump said the happenings that are taking place inside the Manhattan courtroom represents "a very dark day for New York City, New York State, and it's a very dark day for our nation."

Trump also suggested that the case should be thrown out.................

Nothing but the RNC and the GOP figuring out what to do.

If you think people are going to rise up in his defense I think it is doubtful.  Those being incarcerated for J6 was a warning shot.
