Subject: Re: The gag order and testifying?
If Trump elects to take the stand, the judge will almost certainly instruct the witness on how is to comport himself while testifying - and if Trump disregards those instructions, he can be found in contempt and sent off to jail.
And rules regarding contempt make distinctions between what is essentially "out-of-court" contempt and "in-the-court" (or "in-your-face") contempt. If Trump is explicitly instructed by the judge after agreeing to take the stand and Trump subsequently disobeys those directives from the judge while on the stand, he not only can be held in criminal contempt, he can be hauled off on the spot to jail. No perfunctory hearing. No delay. Bailiff? Poof.
Again, this is a hypothetical... Trump will NEVER take the stand. Once he does, he is open to cross-examination on ANY topic and he would never hold up under questioning without perjuring himself or behing held in contempt due to misconduct.
