I want to see a Chicago 7 style bound and gagged Trump.

Bobby Seale, Bound and Gagged

Bobby Seale had not participated in the advance planning for the demonstration, but was arrested and tried with the MOBE members. A co-founder of the Black Panthers, Seale had gone to Chicago as a last-minute replacement for Eldridge Cleaver. Seale, whose lawyer was unavailable due to hospitalization, was denied both a continuance and self-representation. Seale verbally lashed out, interrupting the proceedings.

On October 29, 1969, in an extraordinary move, Judge Julius Hoffman ordered Bobby Seale bound and gagged. His trial was severed from the Chicago Eight on November 5, 1969. Finding him in contempt, Hoffman sentenced Seale to four years in prison, appealed at, U.S. v. Seale, 461 F.2d 345 (1972). As he was led from the courtroom, spectators shouted "Free Bobby!"

Without a doubt, if he loses in any way, its rigged, he'll appeal and then go to scrotus, his pals in the top court.
It's looking like scrotus may give him some immunity too. They are trying to figure out how to reconstruct the written law in his favor. The fact that thomas won't recuse himself is fully fucked.
