The former president suggested sending the NYPD officers running security around his trial to be deployed to quell protests at Columbia University
Donald Trump would really like his fans to protest outside of his criminal hush money trial in Manhattan.
While protesters are allowed to be present in designated areas outside of the Manhattan Criminal Court, MAGA aficionados have shown little willingness to organize around the trial. On Monday, a disgruntled Trump called for security around the trial to be eased so that his followers would feel more comfortable gathering to support him.
It might be safest to keep him locked away in a cell where nothing bad could happen to him. For his own protection of course. I’d even be ok if the security guard walked away for a bit and accidentally turned off the camera.
It’s 2024. Just let him video call in from a prison cell.
Bonus is that you can mute him any time you want.
