Brian Krassenstein pointed out that former President Donald Trump has been fined $10,000 for breaching a gag order in his New York civil fraud trial, marking the second instance of such a violation under the scrutiny of Judge Engoron.
Krassenstein emphasized the critical importance of adhering to the rules and laws that form the backbone of the legal system. He also called attention to Trump’s apparent belief that he can act above the law by publicly commenting on judges, their staff, and juries. Krassenstein firmly underscored that such behavior is not in line with the principles of the legal system.
Krassenstein’s remarks suggest that Trump, like any other individual, should be held accountable for his actions. He highlighted the fundamental principle that the law should be applied uniformly and without prejudice, emphasizing that no one, regardless of their status or position, should be exempt from the consequences of violating legal mandates.
BREAKING: Trump was just fined $10,000 for violating a gag order in his NY civil fraud trial for the 2nd time, by Judge Engoron.
There are rules and laws to follow. I know that Trump thinks he is above those laws and rules and that he can speak out in the public realm about the judges, the staff of the judges and juries, but that’s not the way our legal system works.
If you or I would be fined or sent to jail, so too should Trump. He is no different than you or I in the eyes of the law.
Agreed?
