Ex-Trump Attorney Reveals Why Trump May Be In Jail Sooner Than Anyone Thinks

SPC Carl Davis
"A lawyer who formerly represented Donald Trump has made a stunning prediction: his former client may well be jailed over violations of his gag orders.

Ty Cobb, a former White House attorney who defended Mr Trump during the Mueller investigation, told CNN that he believes Mr Trump will continue violating his gag orders in two ongoing trials unless either judge decides to jail him in response — a possibility he sees as likely.

Now a privately-practising attorney, Mr Cobb was a White House counsel from 2017-2018. He defended Mr Trump during the investigation into connections between his 2016 campaign and Russian operatives, a case whose merits he later defended despite Mr Trump deriding it as a “witch hunt”.

Referencing two recent gag order violations which resulted in civil penalties in Mr Trump’s New York civil fraud trial, Mr Cobb theorised on Monday that the judge in Mr Trump’s ongoing January 6 case in Washington DC would impose a more serious penalty.

“I think she’ll come in with a much heavier penalty, and ultimately, I think he’ll spend a night or a weekend in jail,” said the former White House counsel.

“I think it’s gonna take that,” he added. “I think it’ll take that to stop him.”...

Instead of attorneys flocking to defend Trump for fame and fortune, many are shunning or have quit. Some could not stand Donald's personality as a client. Some did not get paid for services rendered. Some are facing legal charges of their own.
