Former New Jersey Judge Andrew Napolitano said even though Donald Trump has been threatened with jail time for violating a gag order in his New York criminal trial for the 10th time, he doesn't believe Judge Juan Merchan will throw the former president behind bars.
Former New Jersey Superior Court Judge Andrew Napolitano told Newsmax on Monday even though Donald Trump has been threatened with jail time for violating a gag order in his New York criminal trial for the 10th time, he doesn't believe Judge Juan Merchan will throw the former president behind bars.
"But if Judge Merchan is listening now, here's my advice: Sentence the president to some time in jail and suspend that sentence until after the trial is over. By having it hang over the president's head, it might deter the interference with what Judge Merchan says is the trial."
