$200,000 - And That's Not All!

From the NYTimes:

A judge in Atlanta set bail for former President Donald J. Trump at $200,000 on Monday in the new election interference case against him, warning Mr. Trump not to intimidate or threaten witnesses or any of his 18 co-defendants as a condition of the bond agreement.

And see that last part? It's here in the agreement:

The Defendant shall perform no act to intimidate any person known to him or her to be a codefendant or witness in this case or to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice. This shall include, but is not limited to, the following: 

a. The Defendant shall make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against any codefendant; 

b.. The Defendant shall make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against any witness including, but not limited to, the individuals designated in the Indictment as an unindicated co-conspirators Individual 1 through Individual 30; 

c. The Defendant shall make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against any victim; 

d. The Defendant shall make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against the community or to any property in the community; 

e. The above shall include, but are not limited to, posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media;

And then there's this part:

The Defendant shall not violate the laws of this State, the laws of any other state, the laws. of the United States of America, or any other local laws.

I'm absolutely sure Donald J. Trump will have absolutely no problem with these restrictions.

Absolutely none. Nope.
