should donald trump be treated like the rest of us or does his position as idol of the maga movement preclude him from something so silly as the law? you can guess the answer his lawyers are hoping for today, requesting a hearing in front of the full united states court of appeals in washington, d.c. specifically they are asking the court to narrow or throw out the gag order imposed on trump in the criminal case having to do with his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, and they would like a hold on the order while an appeal is considered. you will remember trial judge tanya chutkan first imposed the restriction on trump in october, holding him to the same standards as any other criminal defendant, that he shouldn t publicly attack witnesses, specific prosecutors or court staff members. two weeks ago a three-judge panel upheld that basic idea, although it narrowed the order s scope allowing trump a bit more latitude, particularly to talk about the special pro
