How much of the evidence do you think he'll eat or try flushing down the nearest toilet?

That's interesting. Most of the time, lawyers are delighted to have an increase in billable hours. I guess they can't stand to be in the same room with him, either.

Yeah but, typically lawyers actually get paid for those hours.

I’m betting he won’t be able to follow this rule personally. A month tops before there’s a claim he’s using his phone while looking at the stuff.

I give it a week before he posts a picture of the evidence on his little social media site.

Trump has very little chance of going to jail. Trump's lawyers are a different story, especially if it's this clearly spelled out for them.

he’ll try pulling out some old-timey camera instead.

Probably at least a few pages before maybe rubbing two brains cells together hard enough to remember that the prosecution still has everything.

Judging from what he did to E. Jean Carroll, maybe he should be President Stinky Fingers.

That's just insulting and dehumanizing one of his victims.

Getting his electronics taken away is more of a pre teen/teenager thing though

Trump not able to post on social media? Awesome!

Well, not while in the same room as the secret documents, at least

More like "restricting behaviors allowed from man shown he can't be trusted to police his own actions".
Same reason they fought so hard to prevent him from testifying, because he's pathologically incapable of shutting the fuck up about this shit and will always do what makes things worse for him.

Tell us you're a fucking moron without telling us you're a fucking moron.
Edit: Sorry, my filter broke after a long shitty week. If this hurt your feewings, uh, good, I'm glad. ^Jackass.^
