First Amendment 

The judge in former President Trump's trial has ruled that Trump can speak about his case but he advised Trump to tone down his remarks.  That did little good.  Trump immediately attacked verbally everyone from the judge to the prosecutors.  Trump is determined to make the case a media circus and in the process get an acquittal.  He just might do it if he can prejudice the jury pool.  The judge might have been better off had he issued a gag order, but he didn't.  He is allowing Trump to have his days in the spotlight and to self-destruct if he gets too vicious.  Should Trump foment violence, it will be one more case against him.  Free speech has outer limits.
