This is beyond unacceptable

1. The judge will deal with him...

You don't want to mess with federal judges.

[Journeyman]

6. That's my thought: The judge can do more to him than any of us . . .

and he appears to already be seeking ways to do so.

[Tal Vez]

8. I think that the judge will ignore what Trump said

and then continue to make rulings in the case. I suspect Trump wants to provoke a public response by the judge which he can then use to try to secure a different judge along with another delay.

I'm sure the judge heard Trump call him a Mexican and I know that he will try very hard to set that aside in his mind when he sticks the case up Trump's rear end, and he will smile, too. And, since members of the judiciary often feel a common desire to protect the judiciary as an institution from scurrilous attacks, any judges handling Mr. Trump's appeal will also try very hard to set aside in their minds his screwy conduct as they, too, stick the case up Trump's rear end. He probably won't even get to see them, but they'll also be smiling.

9. The judge will be very careful not to do anything

that might look like retaliation. He will carefully follow the rules, giving Trump no reason to demand his recusal. Trump will dig his own legal grave in this case - the judge will just officiate at the funeral.

I sure wouldn't want to be one of Trump's lawyers; he must be the original Client From Hell.

[Tal Vez]

10. You've got that right.

And to make matters worse, it's my understanding that he often tries to stiff his lawyers on their bills. He's real special.

[gratuitous]

23. As unbelievable as it would be to Donald Trump

The judge is a lot smarter than Trump, and has a lot more courtroom experience. And yeah, Trump's lawyers have to be shitting bricks.

[no_hypocrisy]

2. Aren't there sanctions for extrajudicial interference with legal proceedings?

Stuff like striking evidence? Contempt of court and prison and stuff?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Yup.

I'd love to see the judge hold him in contempt of court. That would just make Trump even more furious and he'd do something really extreme, and then the judge might send federal marshals to pick him up. I doubt it will ever go that far but it's fun to imagine.

[Stallion]

11. Yeah but First Judge Would Have to Issue a Gag Order

which Trump subsequently violated. Often, this is done in order to not prejudice the jury pool-but when Defendant is doing the talking I'd wonder about a Defendant's 1st Amendment Rights. Maybe some one has been down that road

[yellowcanine]

20. Not sure a gag order is needed when a defendant publicly accuses judge of bias.

If Trump has a real beef with the judge he should address it through his lawyer and file a brief. I actually think there is a good case for contempt as is but the judge probably will warn him first. If he had said it in open court I think the judge would have slapped him with a contempt citation.

4. I believe....

the judge will handle trump the jackass....what an idiot he is for attacking a federal judge.

5. What's this?

<snip>
Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy presents decent people everywhere with a dilemma: Sprayed with an open fire hose of schoolyard insults, locker-room vulgarities and bizarre policy pitches by the presumptive Republican nominee, they must make hard choices. Is this latest comment so outrageous, so much worse than all the others, as to require its own response?

Speak up too often and you risk sounding like a car alarm, so urgent and yet so familiar that residents no longer hear it. But don’t speak up often enough and you risk turning the unacceptable into the unremarkable.

At a rally in San Diego on Friday, Mr. Trump again steered his pirate ship into uncharted waters, firing off personal and racially tinged attacks against a federal judge hearing a case in which Mr. Trump is the defendant.

The judge, Gonzalo Curiel of the Federal District Court in San Diego, is presiding over a class-action lawsuit that accuses Trump University of defrauding and misleading customers who spent $1,500 for three-day seminars that promised to teach Mr. Trump’s secrets of success in real estate. Shortly after Mr. Trump’s rally, Judge Curiel ordered the unsealing of about 1,000 pages of the company’s internal documents. The release, which came in response to a request by The Washington Post, was standard procedure for a civil suit.

15. WOW!!! He knows no limits. Thanks! n/t

[malaise]

17. Someone will have to make him understand the meaning of the

rule of law.

[RKP5637]

22. This guy if president would be like an insane dictator. n/t

[beachbumbob]

7. The judge will handle it...

Old saying..when you fought the law....and the law always wins..trumps blowhard nature won't be tolerated

[malaise]

19. Can't wait:

[TeamPooka]

12. The appellate court judge that Trump appeals to after he loses can deal with him properly

by denying his case
Trump is taking shit so he can appeal "everybody knows the judge is biased against me, after all I've been saying it for months."
That's the judge/panel who can spank him but good.

[rug]

14. If Roberts had any spine he would.

[malaise]

16. Precisely

Maybe one of the females will speak - this is an attack on the entire Judicial branch of Government?
This is a racist attack.

[rug]

18. Ultimately SCOTUS has supervision over all federal courts.

By the same token, its Chief should speak out when a berserker tries to lead a mob into the courthouse.

[malaise]

21. Well he should speak

Loretta Lynch should also speak immediately
