I can't help but notice that the article never laid out what the immediate consequences were.
Because the only consequence I can see was that the gag order was reinstated. Not exactly a huge punishment.
the gag order that in no way has shown consequence for his ignoring it.
The pittance level fines are the only “consequence”.
A fine is just a cost of business for the wealthy.
Worse, he’ll probably try to write these off as marketing expenses. Since that’s what he’s using it for that might actually be more legit than any of the other bullshit he’s been telling the IRS for decades.
Plus a double dip by billing it to the campaign.
