Just a technical violation of the United States constitution. Pretty bizarre. He violated the constitution. I mean, the admissions keep rolling. Yeah. Keep him was this a full ginsberg . He was on a lot of the sunday shows trying to own the narrative. Meanwhile, the former president himself spent the weekend raging on social media, and this could get interesting, with posts that could defy the judges orders.
