Did the judge ever rule on the gag order hearing from Tuesday? There were 10 gag order violations presented at that time and now there's even more. I don't know how much clearer it needs to be that Trump will continue to violate the order until he's punished for it.

Honestly, I think these judges are playing soft, because if they play hardball, then other courts may overturn their rulings, as we just saw with the Weinstein case.

So by dragging their feet and playing dumb, they can point to a reason why they're going to give harsher punishments. Trump has violated his gag order over a dozen times now and prior to the last judgement, Secret Service was supposedly checking on how they handle jail time for his actions, so since he got off lite last time, it stands within reason that the punishment will incrementally escalate until there's no other option but to hold him in contempt for violating the order and simply jail him.

Supposedly this is what Trump claims to want, but that's because he truly thinks he's untouchable. But once it happens and he isn't able to tweet, truth, or speak about the trial in public at all, he'll realize what a big mistake he's made.
