Donald Trump could go to jail in his hush cash case — however even earlier than that, he could get locked up over a gag order … one thing the Secret Service is prepared for, however not anticipating.
As you could know, Trump is at present on trial in New York City … the place prosecutors are attempting to persuade a jury he broke the regulation by allegedly coordinating funds to Stormy Daniels to maintain her quiet forward of the 2016 election … one thing he is pled not responsible to.
I simply wish to say Trumps secret service should be the toughest working guys on the planet. I can not think about the stress concerned with protecting Trump protected on the streets of New York and in all places. Y’all are badasses and we respect you 👊 pic.twitter.com/XYpuG9uJVA

While he is technically dealing with a most sentence of as much as 4 years in jail if convicted — nobody actually expects that to occur, particularly for a first-time offender like Trump.
However, a more likely situation within the interim is the potential for DT being held in contempt for violating a gag order that is been handed down by the decide on this case … which prosecutors have argued Trump already did and must be punished for proper now.
While they’re simply asking a decide to impose fines for what they declare are examples of Trump violating the gag order — by way of posts of his on Truth Social, and so on. — they’re additionally saying Trump must be jailed there within the courthouse if he continues … and if that occurs, Secret Service is, actually, ready to do what they’re legally obligated to maintain him protected.
Federal sources with direct information inform TMZ … whereas the chance of Trump being thrown in no matter courthouse pokey they’ve within the again is slim, we’re instructed the company would proceed to guard and serve him in any respect prices, even when he was technically behind bars.
Our sources say, realistically, Trump could be separated fully from different inmates being held on the identical facility — and in that situation … Secret Service could be proper there on standby. In different phrases, there’s completely no probability Trump could be actually uncovered.
We’re instructed that if Trump had been to be held in contempt and jailed, it’d in all probability be very temporary and short-term — one thing we’re instructed the Secret Service does not suppose could be tough to handle if push got here to shove.
Now, on the prospect of Trump being imprisoned for for much longer if he is convicted … our sources say the Secret Service has but to really get collectively and talk about that chance — however once more, contemplating it is extremely unlikely … we’re instructed they are not overly involved about it.
With that stated, we’re instructed the company would congregate and put collectively a stable, long-term sport plan if that is finally the sentence that Trump receives … and the identical considering would apply, 24/7 safety, it doesn’t matter what … and it doesn’t matter what surroundings.
Fortunately for DT, that is what he is afforded as a former president of those United States … whether or not individuals prefer it or not.
