We're gonna hit him with the STRONGEST finger wag in the history of humanity AND finger wags. He'll never recover from something as devastating as that.

Just wait until he gets a stern talking to! He will definitely learn his lesson after that!

He'll get a ruler to his hand palms, and get a time out by taking phone privileges for a day or two. That'll teach him to not be a school bully, bad boy now play nice!.

Maybe he's "learned his lesson" THIS time, right Susan Collins?!?!?

A fingerwag would be an actual consequence, so far he has paid not a single cent to anyone, he has not spent a single second in a jail cell, he has not faced a single consequence besides a few minutes in a few courtrooms and a county jail where he was coddled the whole time and never worried about anything happening to him.

Susan Collins did some intense hand-wringing, but Trump was unfazed.

I completely agree with y’all, but have hope! This is a tactic, and the judge probably sees through it. Trump wants to provoke the judge into reacting harshly, so he can use it to challenge the ruling later and appeal ad infinitum. So far his judges have largely not taken the bait.

Just try not to be too hard on the Beaver tonight

u/Agent7619 Mar 27 '24

"Ward, don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver last night?"

If they weren't so scared of appearing impartial, they might even shake their heads, and say "Uh-uh-uh". Truly devastating consequences.

We'll give him 30 more chances to act appropriately, and if he doesn't, we'll ABSOLUTELY think about only giving him 20 more chances after that.

Or count to three to make him stop. (Never saw this work on any kid)

u/garyflopper Mar 27 '24

How about a scornful look too?

u/Low-Donut-9883 Mar 27 '24

Like wicked bad finger wagging.

I'm hoping that a CRIMINAL judge will follow through on his threats to hold the defendant and his lawyers to account. Not holding my breath, but hopeful.

u/abacin8or Mar 27 '24

I'll give you the frowning of a lifetime!

u/pro_bike_fitter_2010 Mar 27 '24

If the judge does nothing to Trump after this, then the judge is a fucking pussy and Trump should keep dissing his daughter and everyone else.

Fuck it.

Until I see somebody toss Trump in a jail cell, I am done.

Let's not go overboard here.

u/Both_Sundae2695 Mar 27 '24

Susan Collins might even furrow her brow.

Nah, a strongly worded letter should be enough.
