Trump Appears to Violate the Conditions of his Pretrial Release

When Donald Trump was arraigned on his recent criminal indictment for election interference - the magistrate judge instructed him that he is not to tamper with witnesses. But directly following this Trump posted "If you go after me, I'm coming after you!". Special Counsel Jack Smith, siting this post, requested a protective order asking Judge Chutkan to bar him from disclosing evidence to the public. Glenn explains what a Show Cause order is. He says Judge Chutkan will not fall for Trump's excuses for his threatening posts. Glenn wonders if he will post threats again, violating the order not to tamper with witnesses and be sent to jail.
