He's done quite bit to target the judge and his staff, the prosecutors, and jurors.
And his MAGA followers have obliged with a blitzkrieg of threats to personal safety.
As far as corrupt judges though, I think a $35 donation is a long ways from $500 million plus in gifts, coupled with refusals
to recuse on cases affecting one's benefactors. Allowing MAGA flags to fly from one's home is also more disturbing.
And "trust the entire legal process or not" is a false either/or. Adopting that view would fuel corruption.
The goal should always be to examine laws and evidence in a case first. Consider politics when
the outcomes diverge from the law and evidence evidence warrant. E.g., when Supreme Court candidates swear they
consider Roe "settled law" and then overturn it as soon as they can, exactly as they were selected to do.
Using the left's own standards the 01/06 riot was more "mostly peaceful" than many, if not most BLM riots.
