TIPP Poll: Even Dems Agree Gag Orders Violate Trump's Rights

A new poll shows more than half of American voters, including a majority of Democrats, believe former President Donald Trump's First Amendment right to free speech has been violated by gag orders issued by judges in Washington, D.C., and New York.

U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan, appointed by Barack Obama, issued a gag order Oct. 16 that bars Trump, the front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, from making public statements targeting prosecutors, court staff, and potential witnesses in the 2020 election challenge case. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit lifted the gag order Friday and set oral arguments for Nov. 20.

Also, Judge Arthur Engoron, a Democrat overseeing Trump's civil fraud trial in New York, issued a gag order Oct. 3, prohibiting the former president from disparaging court staffers after he publicly criticized the judge's law clerk in a social media post...

The DailyMail.com/TIPP poll conducted Nov. 1-3 and released Wednesday surveyed 1,000 American voters. It showed 56% said the gag orders infringe on his First Amendment right to free speech.

Donald Trump the victim. Bahahahahahahahahahaha.

Just let him be convicted by an unjust prosecution. He may take the oath of office in Sing Sing, but he'll still be signing Executive Orders. Keehee haha ha!

by Curt_Anderson on November 9, 2023 12:24 pm Was this a poll of constitutional experts or simply the uninformed opinions of average joes? The Supreme Court ruled that a gag order is constitutional because it can protect the right to a fair trial. What is a gag order? Most likely we’ve heard the term “gag order” used in connection with high-profile criminal trials. Formally known as a non-dissemination order, a gag order is a court-imposed restriction on what information during trial or preliminary proceedings can be released to the public and what those involved in the case can say about it. Such orders often apply to everyone directly involved: lawyers, witnesses, defendants and plaintiffs. Sometimes they apply only to specific participants. The Sixth Amendment protects the right to “a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury.” This sometimes aligns with the First Amendment right to access and publish information, including about criminal trials. At other times, the two amendments come into conflict, as too much publicity surrounding a case can create unfairness: Potential jurors could be prejudiced by statements in the media or online. Witnesses could be threatened or harassed and even pressured to change their testimony. Confidential or proprietary trade secrets might be released. A gag order seeks to prevent public statements that could cause harm to the overall case or people involved that cannot be undone. freedomforum.org by HatetheSwamp on November 9, 2023 12:40 pm Curt, It's a poll of people who vote. by Ponderer on November 10, 2023 5:55 am Curt, Hate's right. If we want to ensure that Biden gets reelected, we need to drop all of the charges against Trump and allow him to get away with all the felonies that he has committed. You see, Hate and a lot of voters think that Trump should be allowed to commit whatever felonies or treasons he believes he needs to commit and should be protected against any harassment that holding him accountable for his felonious actions would cause him. They think it's mean to treat him like a mere human citizen of this country, responsible for the crimes that he commits. Trump is an Elite. In fact he's the elitest of the Elite. Such people are above the law and shouldn't be bothered or restricted by the confines of the Constitution. Even if they swear an oath to the Constitution to protect and defend it from all enemies foreign and domestic, they themselves are immune to its precepts and they should be given nothing more than a stern finger-wagging any time they wipe their ass with it. Even attempting a coup to overthrow our government should be seen as simply an Elite only having a bit of a wild time, all in good fun. This is precisely what Hate and all his MAGA brethren believe and why he defends Donald Trump so vociferously and with such selfless dedication. A fact to which this post of his plainly and obviously attests. Leave poor Donald Trump alone! He's done nothing that any member of his elite caste isn't freely allowed to do, given how far above the law they are. Even if he committed every felony he has been indicted for so far and that the evidence proves he did, he shouldn't be treated like a common criminal. He is bigger... greater than our Constitution. It's such impudence on our part to ever think otherwise. by HatetheSwamp on November 10, 2023 7:08 am This is precisely what Hate and all his MAGA brethren believe and why he defends Donald Trump so vociferously and with such selfless dedication.
