We all know he'll violate the order. Whatcha gonna do? BS fines that his PAC will cover? Utterly useless.

Maybe he should be held in contempt and slung into jail?

Seriously. These gag orders are a fucking joke. Putting peoples lives in danger like that should mean you go directly to jail. And it does for anyone who isn’t rich.

Especially if they are rich as money means a lot less to them. Penalties have to be meaningful.

I hope he has already specified the punishments fro breaking the gag order. Because he will absolutely need them.
