Ny Judge Is Reportedly Issuing Gag Order On Trump, Threatening 30 Days In Jail

Verified

Donald Trump's legal team is preparing for a potential gag order from a Manhattan judge that could prevent him from talking about his Tuesday arrest in New York City.

Breaking the gag order could trigger a fine of $1,000 and a prison sentence of up to 30 days. Trump's legal team is considering hiring a First Amendment lawyer to fight the order, as Manhattan's Acting Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan has been described as a "no-nonsense judge" who would not hesitate to jail someone for violating the order.
