MSNBC commentator Donny Deutsch expressed on “Deadline” that former President Donald Trump is deeply afraid of going to jail because he will be forced to abandon his normal routines, which are crucial to his well-being.
Discussing the judge in the New York City business records trial threatening jail time for any further violations of the gag order, host Nicolle Wallace highlighted Trump’s aversion to jail by referencing his previous actions like skipping a memorial for veterans due to rain.
Deutsch emphasized Trump’s lack of resilience, noting that he would not be able to handle the physical and emotional challenges of being incarcerated. He explained how Trump’s superficial concerns about appearance and cleanliness would further amplify his fear of jail. Deutsch ended by emphasizing that Trump’s fear of jail is genuine and should not be underestimated.
