Duration of confinement: one month.
Judge Marchan should sentence Donald Trump to detention in New York County jail from end of court every Friday through court opening every Monday morning … and from end of court each Tuesday through court opening every Thursday.
This means Trump can go to Trump Tower and use his gold-plated toilet and sleep in his gaudy gold-draped bedroom on Monday nights and Thursday nights, and that’s it. It means he spends five nights a week and all weekend in the slammer for a month.
It should be stipulated that His Imperial Teflon-ness cannot wear his own jammies or other duds while in the pokey. He must wear prison-issue beddies, use prison-issue soap and toilet paper, and have only prison food and bedding. He’ll need a roomie, hopefully one the size of Reacher with a disposition
He may exercise one hour a day with the general prison population.
He may not have hair spray (it’s flammable).
Expect a profound debate about that orange make-up.
Then let’s see if he keeps shooting off his mouth—or if he comes down as dumbstruck as I think he will.

In late notes: Trump appear to be culpable for election crimes in Michigan, so expect more criminal charges — and Meadows and Giuliani are going to be indicted in Arizona for the fake elector scheme there. Arizona has already indicted eight state citizens on charges, and if one of them turns states’ evidence, Meadows and Giuliani are in big trouble. If this mess is linked to Trump, it’s more and more and more criminal charges.
On the bright side, the Supreme Court socked it to Kari Lake.
Tomorrow is a profoundly important day in American history. Watch the Supreme Court carefully. They have already done much for Trump giving him a delay of months. There’s more they can do — but let’s hope they don’t.
Besides pandering to him?
