OMG this is hilarious. I officially now have more contempt for this judge than I do for Trump. And that's really saying something.

It's the maximum penalty, and the judge acknowledged that he had no control over it and that he wished it scaled with the contemnor's ability to pay.
One way to look at it. Another is that Trump is not being treated any different than someone else when it comes to the fine. If he keeps doing it and the judge locks him up, everyone knows the judge was fair.

So $9K?
For the layman, that’s a lot, but for Trump?
Let's be real, that's probably a lot for Trump right now, too. The man's broke.
Lol he's not paying. Republicans gave him unfettered access to their election campaign funds
Drain em Donny. Keep going.
His stake in his "media" company is (nonsensically) still worth billions of dollars right now. He probably won't be able to cash all of that out if he wanted to, but he is definitely not broke.
I’m sure Trump doesn’t pay anyways. He’ll use the money donated to him by Cleatus the slack jawed yokel.
