Warnings are for people who may have made a mistake or didn't know the crime was enforced. Does the judge really think this whole incident was just accidental or Trump, with his long history in court, doesn't know that judges can jail you for contempt? At best you can make an affluenza argument that he's rich so he believes, with a lot of supporting evidence, that consequences for people like him can never be significant, but like, you'd be a fucking moron.
