The judge already threatened jail time if Trump misses court, I believe specifically citing this date. This, while standard procedure, really set up a lose/lose situation. If Trump attends his son's graduation and is jailed for it you just handed Trump a massive campaign boost. If he attends the graduation and don't jail him then you look impotent, and that will be the entire news cycle for days. Trump being Trump, I don't see anyway he doesn't attend now.
I'm sure given your professional you are very aware of how many people suddenly want so badly to be a part of their children's lives as soon as they are tied up with legal issues. You are right that Trump is using this as a political "can't-lose" situation, it's just funny how under the gold plating he's just a run of the mill crappy husband and absentee dad.
If only Harry Chapin were alive to write a song about how much Trump wanted to be there for his kids.
