MSNBC legal analyst Glenn Kirschner proclaimed that former President Trump is a greater threat to witnesses than murderers he’s tried as a federal prosecutor and that he should be locked up before his trial.
He made the outrageous statement on SiriusXM radio host Dean Obeidallah’s show Friday. The two were discussing Trump for the first time since he was arraigned in Georgia.
The rabid leftists declared that Trump is a danger to witnesses and court officials because of his “cult” of violent supporters. They argued that locking him up would reduce the threat.
“So, Glenn, you’ve had some murder, a lot of murder cases. You’ve done it. And I’m sure organized crime was involved. Is the threat to jurors and witnesses and Donald Trump, does that eclipse the concerns you had in cases in the past that you actually handled?” Obeidallah asked Kirschner.

“So I tried a series of RICO cases dealing in that very courthouse where it was a criminal organization that had killed 30 people over the course of about ten years. They killed their competitors. They killed witnesses. They killed members of their own crew when they tried to leave the crew because nobody gets out alive because then you run the risk of that person flipping and snitching,” Kirschner began in response to the question before intimating that Trump or his followers would just kill anyone who threatened him.
A former federal prosecutor should know better. But since Kirschner believes that he won’t be held accountable for his smearing of Trump, he felt free to engage in full-throttled Trump Derangement Syndrome.
“So we had an anonymous jury because of the danger to the jurors. We were in the secure courtroom, which they have since disbanded, and that well of the court was separated by bulletproof glass from the audience. We had our defendants wearing 100,000-volt stun belts under their suits because Judge Lamberth had ordered that for security reasons,” Kirschner continued.
The fascists at MSNBC never disappoint.

“And guess what? They still got to some of the jurors and some of the jurors had to be dismissed mid-trial. I have tried cases involving the sort of most rigorous security measures ever in the District of Columbia,” he claimed.
Then came the accusation against Trump and, by default, anyone who supports him.
“I have an even graver concern for Donald Trump because his reach is so broad, his followers are so rabid at times and so detached from reality. I’m sorry, this is a cult. And so, yes, I am concerned that the judges have not yet stepped up to address the danger, the ongoing danger, the demonstrated danger of Donald Trump to witnesses, to jurors, to prosecutors, to judges, and to their families,” Kirschner asserted.
You guys are in need of therapy

“I hope at some point the judges realize that Donald Trump is a danger to the community and he should be detained pending trial because that will begin to neutralize the threat, in part because you’ll take his megaphone away. I think we’re going to be having that conversation in the months to come,” he concluded, advocating the outright censorship and persecution of a political foe.
