This would be a criminal contempt charge. As such, he would be violating his bail agreements in his other three cases meaning he could be locked up in pre-trial detention. It's risky on his part. Better for him if he doesn't get another violation. To be locked up until the Atlanta trial or, even worse, until the Supremes decide on immunity in the other two cases would pretty much end any campaigning he could do until the election.

Most people here would prefer he be out and about for the rest of the year rather than locked up.

Merchan et all are already trying to dictate his schedule so the difference between what they are doing and criminal contempt is, frankly, drawing attention to restricting Trump’s movements.

Not a good look to do that to the leading presidential candidate.

That's probably his best campaign strategy tbh although it would be terrible for the country.

You really believe that commie?

Everyone else in America knows this is a soviet era show trial that Trump wins every day by ignoring that slimy partisan hack. Trump wins even more if he gets thrown in jail.

There would be no need to do further campaigning if that happened. Unlimited, free tv time and huge voter motivation.
