After Trump's lawyer complained Friday that the defense shouldn't have to "babysit" Trump while he reviews sensitive materials, US District Judge Tanya Chutkan said they could "compromise," and that Trump could look over the documents on his own but couldn't have any electronics while doing so.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.^
