Ex-RNC Chair Calls for Trump's Imprisonment Over 'Dangerous' Attacks

Michael Steele criticizes the leniency shown to Trump, whose verbal assaults on court personnel have led to threats and antisemitic messages.

Former RNC Chairman Michael Steele calls for Donald Trump's imprisonment to halt his 'enormously dangerous' verbal attacks on judges, court staff, and prosecutors involved in his ongoing trials.
Steele criticizes the grace extended to Trump, arguing that no other person would be allowed to behave in such a manner without facing legal consequences.
Trump's attacks have led to threats and antisemitic messages directed at court staff, particularly Judge Arthur Engoron and his clerk, Allison Greenfield, who are involved in Trump's New York civil fraud trial.
Despite a gag order issued by Judge Engoron to prevent Trump from disparaging court personnel, an appellate judge temporarily lifted the order due to free speech concerns.
Trump faces multiple legal challenges, including civil fraud trials and indictments at both the state and federal level, and has been sued by New York Attorney General Letitia James for $250 million.
