to appeal to his MAGA followers and show them he is the 'good guy'.

I bet Maxwell is next to walk out of prison.

I'm wondering of the media are showing the many No Kings protests and if Donny is seeing that.

But we know that TFG spent the day golfing and when he finally met briefly with Schumer and Jeffries he had no idea what the issues were that they were talking about. So I'm guessing that he's kept isolated from the real news, though it would be tough to keep him from knowing about the mass protests in every part of the country.
