IN CONTEMPT FOR VIOLATING HIS GAG ORDER. A STAGGERING 10TH
TIME. IT LOOKS LIKE THE FORMER PRESIDENT AND CURRENT CRIMINAL
DEFENDANT HAS OFFICIALLY RUN OUT OF ROPE. JUDGE WONDER SEAN
TOLD HIS ATTORNEYS AND COURT QUOTE, IT APPEARS THAT THE
$1000 FINES ARE NOT SERVING AS A DETERRENT. THE LAST THING YOU
WANT TO DO IS PUT YOU IN JAIL. YOU ARE THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES AND POSSIBLY THE NEXT PRESIDENT AS WELL.
THERE ARE MANY REASONS WHY INCARCERATION IS TRULY A LAST
RESORT FOR ME. BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, I HAVE A JOB TO DO
SO AS MUCH AS THEY DO NOT WANT TO IMPOSE A JAIL SANCTION AND I
HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO AVOID DOING. SO I WANT YOU
TO UNDERSTAND THAT I WILL IF NECESSARY AND APPROPRIATE. >> WE'RE AWAITING A DECISION
FROM JUDGE ONE MORE SHOT. ANY KIND OF TOOK US ARE SOME
MAJOR MOMENTS EARLY THIS MORNING TALKING ABOUT THE
GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION, THE FACT THAT IT WOULD ALSO
INVOLVE SECRET SERVICE IF YOU WERE TO BE PUT IN JAIL IF YOU
WERE TO VIOLATE THIS GAG ORDER, ALTHOUGH HE IS NOT PUTTING HIM
IN JAIL FOR NOW, IT SEEMS TO BE YET ANOTHER THREAT FOR THE
FORMER PRESIDENT TO NOT CONTINUE TO VIOLATE HIS GAG
ORDER. SEEMS LIKE THE JUDGES READY, WILLING AND PREPARED TO
PUT THE FORMER PRESIDENT IN JAIL IF HE CONTINUES TO VIOLATE
THE GAG ORDER. BUT AGAIN, UNDERSTANDING THE GRAVITY OF
THAT SITUATION, REALLY WHAT IT WOULD GO INTO. >> AND MAKING THAT DECISION.
AND SO THAT'S THE LINE IN THE SAND DRAWN BY JUDGE WERE SHOT.
WHAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN IS WHAT HAPPENS, NOT IF, BUT WHEN TRUMP
VIOLATE HIS GAG ORDER AGAIN, DOES MISSION WILL BE PUT IN A
POSITION WHERE EITHER HAVE TO ABIDE BY THE CONDITIONS THAT HE
HIMSELF SET FORTH OR WILL CONTINUE GIVING DONALD TRUMP
WIDE LATITUDE TO VIOLATE HIS ORDERS, WHICH WILL EFFECTIVELY
TOLD TRUMP THAT HE WON'T BE SUBJECT TO THE RULES OF THE
COURT AND HE CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT, BASICALLY THAT HE'S
ABOVE THE LAW. HOPEFULLY JUDGMENT ON UNDERSTANDS THE
IMPLICATIONS OF HIS NEXT MOVE IN THAT SCENARIO. AND SADLY,
EVEN THE FACT THE JUDGE WERE SHOT OPTED TO TREAT TRUMP'S
10TH VIOLATION WITH ANOTHER SLAP ON THE WRIST IS EVIDENCE
THAT SOME FOLKS THAT, IN FACT, THIS JUDGE ISN'T UP TO THE TASK
OF HOLDING THEM TO ACCOUNT IN THE SAME MANNER AS ANY OTHER
CRIMINAL DEFENDANT. TO THAT POINT, HERE'S MSNBC LEGAL
ANALYST GLENN KIRSCHNER OUTLINING HIS WINNING FAITH IN
TRUMP BEING HELD PROPERLY ACCOUNTABLE. AND YOU ACTUALLY
USE IS ONE OF JUDGMENT ON ITS OWN STATEMENTS TO PROVE HIS
THEORY. >> TODAY WAS THE 10TH COUNT OF
CRIMINAL CONTEMPT OF COURT. THAT JUDGE WHERE SEAN FOUND
DONALD TRUMP GUILTY OF BE ON A REASONABLE DOUBT. AND YET WHAT
DID HE SAY? HE SAID, WELL, ANOTHER $1000 FINE. WHAT WE NOW
KNOW, BRIAN, IS THERE HAS BEEN NO APPRECIABLE PUNISHMENT OR
SANCTION FOR DONALD TRUMP'S FIRST 10 VIOLATIONS OF
JUDGMENT. SEAN'S ORDER NOT TO TALK ABOUT AND ENDANGER
WITNESSES, JURORS AND OTHERS. NOW, ONCE AGAIN, JUDGE MOORE
SHOT GAVE HIM A STERN WARNING, YOU KNOW, DO IT AGAIN, DO IT
FOR AN 11TH TIME AND YOU MIGHT SEE THE INSIDE OF A JAIL CELL.
BUT THERE'S SOMETHING THE JUDGE ROCHON SAID THAT WAS
INFURIATING TO ME. AND LET ME READ, YOU KNOW, I KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO SAY. THIS IS UPSETTING. HE SAID THE LAST THING I WANT
TO DO IS SAY TO DONALD TRUMP IS TO PUT YOU IN JAIL. YOU ARE THE
FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND POSSIBLY THE NEXT
PRESIDENT AS WELL. WHAT DID JUDGE OR SEAN CONVEY AND I HAVE
BEEN VERY SUPPORTIVE OF JUDGMENT, SEAN, IN THE WAY HE
HAS PRESIDED OVER THIS TRIAL. BUT YOU'VE GOT TO CALL IT OUT
WHEN YOU SEE HIM DOING WRONG. WHAT HE SAID WAS IN SUBSTANCE,
IF YOU OR ANY OTHER HAWK, ANY OTHER DEFENDANT, ANYBODY
WHO DID NOT HAVE POWER PRIVILEGE STATUS, WELL
POSITION, YOU'D BE IN JAIL, RIGHT FOR 10 COUNTS OF CONTEMPT
OF COURT. YOU'D BE IN JAIL. BUT I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT TO
YOU. WHY? BECAUSE YOU'RE THE FORMER PRESIDENT AND YOU MIGHT
VERY WELL BE PRESIDENT. AGAIN, THAT IS OFFENSIVE TO THE EQUAL
APPLICATION OF THE RULE OF LAW. AND IT, YOU KNOW, MADE ME A
LITTLE BIT NAUSEOUS WHEN I READ IT. >> IN OTHER WORDS, JUDGE WERE
SHOT, HAS MADE IT CLEAR THAT HE'S DOING EVERYTHING IN HIS
POWER NOT TO INCARCERATE TRUMP. AND IF IT WASN'T ALREADY
BLATANTLY OBVIOUS BY HIS ACTIONS OR LACK THEREOF, IT'S
NOW EVEN MORE OBVIOUS BY HIS WORDS. BUT WITH THAT SAID,
DESPITE JUDGMENTS ON LOBBYING FOR TRUMP'S FREEDOM, TRUMP
HIMSELF VERY CLEARLY SEEMS NOT TO WANT TO TEST THE LIMITS OF
HIS GAG ORDER ANY FURTHER. SURE HE'LL SAY STUFF LIKE THIS >> DONALD TRUMP PROCLAIMS
HIMSELF READY TO DO THAT PERSONAL SACRIFICE ANY DAY. AND I WANT TO BE CLEAR WITH YOU
LEGALLY AND OTHERWISE, BOTH IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS TRIAL AND
JUST HIM RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT RIGHT NOW, HE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO TALK THAT WAY TO DESCRIBE
HIMSELF HOW HE WANTS. BUT AS FOR THE CLAIM, THEIR I
CAN TELL YOU, FACTUALLY, DONALD TRUMP HAS RARELY TAKEN
PERSONAL LEGAL SACRIFICES AND THE MANY DIFFERENT CASES IN
PROBES HAVE BEEN SPARED HIM AND OTHERS. HE OFTEN LET'S EVEN AS
FORMER CLOSE AIDES GET IN TROUBLE, GET SUBPOENAED, PAY
BIG LEGAL BILLS FOR EVEN GO TO JAIL. AND HE'S GENERALLY SAT
OUT THOSE BIG FIGHTS. WE COVERED ONE WITH HIS FORMER
AIDE, PETER NAVARRO, WHERE FOR MONTHS DONALD TRUMP WOULDN'T
EVEN SIGN A PIECE OF PAPER AFFIRMING TOMORROW'S DEFENSE
THAT HE HAD INVOKED THE TYPE A PRIVILEGE WHICH DIDN'T APPLY.
BUT WHETHER HE TRIED TO INVOKE IT FOR NAVARRO BUT POINT BEING
THAT WAS NOT MUCH OF A SACRIFICE HE DIDN'T DO THAT. >> WHO ROMANTICIZE THIS IDEA
THAT HE'S THE NEXT NELSON MANDELA AND THAT HE'LL GLADLY
GET LOCKED UP TO PROTECT THE CONSTITUTION OR WHATEVER OTHER
NONSENSE HE'S TELLING HIMSELF. BUT I BELIEVE THAT THE GUY
REALIZES WHAT THE REALITY OF HIM SITTING IN A JAIL SO WOULD
BE SURE YOU COULD RILE UP HIS BASE IS ALREADY VOTING FOR HIM
SO HE CAN SQUEEZE IN FOR SOME MONEY. SURE. HE'LL GET SEAN
HANNITY AND LAURA INGRAM. AND JOSH, YOU NEED TO DIAL UP
THE PHOTO OUTRAGE AND PRETEND THAT THEIR GOD KING IS EVEN
MORE OF A VICTIM IF THAT WAS EVEN POSSIBLE. BUT THINK ABOUT
THE IMPLICATIONS ON THE BROADER ELECTORATE. YOU THINK THAT'S
REALLY GOING TO HELP TRUMP WITH THOSE INDEPENDENT VOTERS AND
SUBURBAN MOMS AND PRO-DEMOCRACY REPUBLICANS OUT THERE TO SEE
THIS GUY LANGUISHING IN JAIL. SO YOU THINK THAT'S GOING MAKE
THEM WANT TO VOTE FOR THE GUY MORE? YOU THINK THAT'S A SMART
CAMPAIGN MOVE TO END UP IN JAIL? AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT
DONALD TRUMP'S BASE. THOSE PEOPLE ARE ALREADY ON BOARD.
I'M TALKING ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY UP FOR GRABS
WHO TRUMP NEEDS. IF YOU WANT TO WIN THE ELECTION AND THE
LASTING IMAGE THAT THEY WOULD HAVE BEFORE THEY GO INTO A
VOTING BOOTH IS THAT THIS GUY WAS JUST IN A PRISON. SO I
DON'T EXACTLY THINK THAT'S GOING TO HELP HIM. AND I THINK
DONALD TRUMP KNOWS THAT FOR AS LITTLE SELF-CONTROL IS THIS GUY
SEEMS TO HAVE EVEN HE CAN RECOGNIZE THE DAMAGE THAT HIM
SITTING IN A JAIL CELL WOULD HAVE ON THE BROADER ELECTORATE.
AND WHILE HE MAY BE ABLE TO DRIFT TO SUPPORTERS ARE SOME
MORE CASH AND REBUT THE VICTIMHOOD TO A 10. IF YOU WANT
TO GET ELECTED NOVEMBER, HE PROBABLY KNOWS THAT STAYING
OUT OF JAIL IS THE BETTER OPTION HERE. CONSIDER, TOO.
IF HE WANTED TO BE JAILED, HE COULD HAVE VERY EASILY
ALREADY DONE IT. HE COULD VERY EASILY ATTACKED MICHAEL COHEN,
STORMY DANIELS. INSTEAD, HE ACTUALLY IS ATTEMPTING
ALBEIT CLUMSILY TO EXERCISE SOME RESTRAINT. HERE'S WITH
THAT AWKWARD EFFORT. LOOKS LIKE. >> AND IT'S A DISGRACE AND THEY
ADD TO IT. WE'RE A A YEAH, THIS IS. >> AGAIN, IF YOU WANTED TO BE
LOCKED UP, HE WOULDN'T WHINE ABOUT HIS GAG ORDER. HE WOULD
SIMPLY CROSS THE RED LINE AND VIOLATED ONCE MORE. >> THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT HOW
HE MIGHT END UP IN JAIL IF SHE CONTINUES TO VIOLATE ITS COURT
ORDERS. US RECORDS PREPARED FOR THAT. >> AMAZING COMMISSIONER.
SHE IS PREPARED FOR WHATEVER COMES ON RIKERS ISLAND. WE
DON'T WANT TO DO WITH A HYPOTHETICAL BUT THEIR
PROFESSIONS THAT BE READY. >> FRANKLY, I THINK THIS POINT
TRUMP IS CONTENDING WITH A PRETTY CRUSHING REALIZATION.
HE LOOKS WEAK. HE WANTS HIS SUPPORTERS TO BELIEVE THAT HE'S
IN CHARGE, THAT HE'S TOUGH, THAT NO ONE CAN STOP THEM FROM
SAYING WHAT HE WANTS TO SAY. WE'RE DOING WHAT HE WANTS TO
DO. BUT IN REALITY, THIS TRIAL IS EXPOSING THE FACT THAT HE'S
VERY MUCH NOT IN CHARGE. HE IS AT THE MERCY OF A JUSTICE
SYSTEM THAT AT LEAST THEORETICALLY SHOULDN'T CARE
WHO SITTING IN THE DEFENDANT'S CHAIR. AND SO TRUMP'S EV
INVINCIBILITY THAT HE RELIES ON TO DUPE. HIS FANS IS WITHERING
AWAY IN REAL TIME. INSTEAD, THE GUY LOOKS WEAK AND FOR A
SELF-PROCLAIMED STRONGMEN, THERE'S NOTHING WORSE. HE IS
STUCK IN A COURTROOM WHINING ABOUT HOW COLD IT IS. FALLING
ASLEEP BEGGING FOR DAYS OFF, HAVING TEMPER TENSIONS IN THE
HALLWAY. DONALD TRUMP IS THE IMAGE, THE IMAGE OF WEAKNESS.
AND I BET THAT EVEN HE KNOWS THAT THE ONLY WAY FOR HIM TO
LOOK EVEN WEAKER THAN HE ALREADY DOES RIGHT NOW AS IF HE
WAS STUCK IN A JAIL CELL TO PRETEND THAT IT'S BADGE OF
HONOR. SURE. BUT HE WILL LOOK LIKE A PATHETIC, DESPERATE
CRIMINAL EVEN MORE SO THAN HE DOES RIGHT NOW. BEFORE YOU GO TO SEE MORE
