Former Fox News pundit and current podcaster Dan Bongino has a suggestion for the team around Donald Trump that is rather remarkable.
According to media reports and seemingly affirmed the Truth Social account of President Trump, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis is demanding a $200,000 bond for President Trump due to his being a flight risk. Bongino is suggesting President Trump call their bluff tomorrow and not post the bond. Here’s his reasoning. WATCH:

Bongino is suggesting that President Trump position himself as a genuine political prisoner and then let the Secret Service run the jail.
What are your thoughts?

Congress would fast track legislation to remove USSS for Trump leaving him vulnerable ‘toot sweet’.
That is not really relevant, because if that happens, he could immediately post bond and get released
It would fail. The RINOs are too cowardly to vote to remove Trump’s Secret Service protection and Republicans control the House, so it would likely not even get to a vote
Never happen–at least not in this session of Congress.
Absolutely no!!!
That’s tooooo open to problems for our Warrior
It’s a bluff though. They have no plan ready to actually jail him. I’m leaning towards call the bluff.
If so the SS will be bribed or distracted so they can Epstein our beloved Pres Trump. Look how the SS turned a blind eye with the cocaine in the WH and covered it up.
After thinking it out, I’d say ‘no.’ If he does this, and then posts bail in a few days or so, it comes across as a stunt. Easy chum for the uniparty to use against him.
I’m open to being convinced otherwise.
Challenge accepted.
Trump goes to the court house steps and says the following:
For the past seven years, I have been harassed and persecuted like no other president in our nations’ history. And in the past three years, I have endured legal persecution that is so outrageous, calling it banana republic behavior would be an insult to banana republics.
My family has endured slander and my supporters have endured worse; I have been subjected to a withering and very costly legal assault all because I did the unthinkable: I won a presidential election without asking for permission, or bending to the rules of the despots who run this country.
Well no more. No more playing by their rules, no more asking for permission. If I’m to be persecuted, then so be it. But no more will I accept the terms of petty tyrants, racists, and communist wannabes.
You want to rule like a 3rd world shit-hole junta, then jail me. But understand this, the WHOLE world is watching and they know what you are.
(drop the mic…..)
Nailed it.
I would change it to ‘or bending to the rules of the despots who think they run this country’ but you make a compelling argument otherwise.
No. Bad idea. Don’t trust anyone in the jail plus Trump would be totally dependent on these adversaries for his welfare.
No one could get in the jail. The Secret Service would take the whole place over, food service and all. Fani and her gang would have to hurry up and figure out where to put the present occupants. that would turn the whole county upside down financially and I bet they would back off that bond thing quickly. Secret Service would run the whole county while Trump was incarcerated there. LOL. that would be cool.
She would probably just let them all out on the street.
It would make it a lot easier for Fani Fatass to bang her gangsta boyfriends if she can release them all..
NO!
re: “plus Trump would be totally dependent on these adversaries for his welfare.”
You people, you keep saying this like -it was reality.
Would it trouble you cats too much to check the section of USC 18. whatever that Dan Bongino cites that says you’re all washed up?
I’m wondering if he wouldn’t have the jail members protecting him and the Secret Service from anybody even thinking of trying to get in.
Nope, not a chance.
Sue them for false charges, and get the money back later. I hope he doesn’t give them the satisfaction.
the bastards
It’s times like these I miss Rush the most. I wonder what he would say/advise….
I know, Rush was so good at instantly analyzing what really mattered in big events.
Rush knew the Libs like every glorified inch of his body.
I can here the intro music now!
Bongino also thinks DJT should do the debates.
I think both are bad ideas.
Many who support Trump wanted him to do the debates just to wreck the other candidates. I mean, his demolition of Jeb! was just pure comedy gold
In 2016, debates served Trump’s purposes, to separate himself. In 2020, he’s already separated. Debates can wait, perhaps forever.
Jeb! jumping up on tip-toes to appear taller was hilarious.
Why doesn’t Dan offer himself as a surrogate prisoner?
Now THAT idea I like.
Put his money where his mouth is.
Lol. Great idea!
It’s actually an intriguing idea. Not to follow through with it, don’t misunderstand. Spring it on them in court when the judge asks, “Are prepared to post bond today, Mr. Trump?” “No.” I want to see the looks on each one of their faces. Because they wouldn’t expect it, nor would they be prepared for it. Secret Service does their deal making them move inmates around, etc etc etc. And then Trump posts. I know it wouldn’t go down just like that, in reality. But, it is fun to imagine however. Cause Fulton County’s Sheriff and communist prosecutor all kinds of disruption.
But to follow through on it? No way.
Do it.
No!
President Trump needs to be safe, not in jail! But, when you visualize Bongino’s idea, it conjures up some interesting realizations about the absurdity of this whole BS waste of time and money for the GA taxpayers, and certainly highlights the evil of this weaponization!
Totally, completely, 100% agree. We are now in a post-Constitutional period where we are ruled by petty, deeply corrupt despots and megalomaniacal oligarchs. Doing things bv the book, by the “rule of law” is crazy–there is no LAW!
The only law is whatever the racists (like Fani Willis, Alvin Bragg, the Congressional BLACK Caucus, et al), the neo-Marxists, the sexual deviants and the spawn of the Father-of-all-Lies (the Enemedia), says it is. Trump has to take some chances. He has to push the envelope.
Trump won the 2020 election and he was robbed. It is completely understandable that he wants justice. But he will NOT get it by playing the stacked rules against him. As unfair as it might seem, Trump must demonstrate that is the Alpha Male and willing to do whatever it takes to win. Rallies won’t work this time.
Eff the racist Fani Willis, the racist Fulton County Democrats, the Deep State, the DC Republicans and all Democrats. This is smash mouth politics; either get in the game, or take it to the house.
I agree. And I believe it would be very short-lived. I don’t know about the particular detention center that President Trump would go to, but most places are already overcrowded. It would be worse for them. It’s a logistical nightmare that they can’t handle.
Not interested in having the next headline be “PDJT hung himself in jail cell; oddly all cameras were offline and the on-duty officers were asleep” –
the swamp don’t care how they remove him, and his kind, from their agenda and I just don’t see President Trump, or his lawyers, doing stupid things.
Playing by stacked rules will never work, never win, and will ultimately fail.
Leaders–true leaders–have to take chances sometimes, risks that might even seem crazy. But we live in crazy times.
The SS is duty bound to protect Trump. They can federalize the entire jail and NO state judge can stop them.
One more point: if its only about Trump, then yes, he should play it safe and play by the rules. But if its about We the People and this country, well…..
One more point: Did you ever hear Rush Limbaugh’s annual broadcast about the sacrifices of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence? If Trump wants to lead, then he needs to push all the chips to the middle of the table.
You like the idea so much you offer to take his place.
No to jail for our President who IS a real and True leader. No paper hat theories please
If I was a billionaire former president of the country who was being persecuted as a proxy for those I passionately represented, and if I was a true leader, then yes–I would absolutely take the risk.
Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat
And that is Bongino’s take on the matter, these are crazy times.
Remember the song – thats the night the lights went out in georgia?
You know the rest.
I don’t want to see Trump putinized do you?
The best part of these BS indictments will be watching defendants like Rudy, Powell, and the others with law degrees, grind the DA’s case into powder.
I truly hope they go after Fani Dipshit afterwards.
They need to Lawfare her a$$ into oblivion. And once that is done pile on with counter lawsuits to destroy her family for generations to come. Make it so bad her grandchildren are in debt the rest of their lives.
Lawfare her fat a$$ into oblivion there fixed it for ya
She deserves to be disbarred and sued to poverty. Bragg too.
Jeffrey Epstein.
Not a personal comparison…just to be clear.
Yeah, President Trump needs advice from another blowhard.
So, wonder which of bongino’s former fox friends put him up to this?
Bongino is a Patriot, sir
Your opinion…and I respect it.
I do still think Dan’s heart is in the right place.
His brain, however, occasionally wanders out for a beer.
Vino tinto… or a few shots of Redneck Riviera whiskey.
Anti-Constitutional criminals running the GA Justus system.
A dark moment in US history indeed.
Even worse: Anti-Constitutional criminals running DC.
I personally don’t trust any government agency. The law including the constitution means absolutely nothing to them. They act with impunity and have no accountability to the people.
Bad call. I get the swipe by refusing bail because you’re not a flight risk…you’re running for President.
Bad for reasons already stated, and as we all know. They could kill him, but that would be problematic for them. The country could become ungovernable. Also, He could lose access to his phone and social media as well. He’d likely pony up the cash right there and then if that’s the case.
He’ll get little sympathy for a mere pittance to avoid more drama, as this is not a media game. Any semi-objective observer already knows he is a political prisoner.
Sundance….can you set up a poll question for this here????
The fact that this point has been reached boggles the mind… the lack of outrage is very disturbing.
J6 served many purposes, not the least of which was to make us feel unsafe in expressing our views and showing our support.
Well…
…After reading and commenting here for many years…
I am now very used to feeling unsafe. So be it.
There is no safety this side of the grave.
My husband laughs because it hasn’t stopped me at all.
I continue to say what I want online and in person, period. I’m not bombastic but I am pointed.
Bingo!
I listened to the whole show on the day, I agree with Dan’s idea. DO IT>
The NO answers here sound a lot like fear talking to me.
The fear is valid
Then why don’t you volunteer to be Trump’s proxy prisoner? You go sit in jail.
Correct. If Trump gives away his personal security and gives over to the Secret Service, a Uniparty institution, he’s risking his life. That’s not hyperbole. Trump’s life has been in danger since the day he came down that escalator in 2015, particularly after he said he would audit the Federal Reserve. The people who want him dead have killed many others. They are evil.
Yep. This ain’t beanbag.
You do realize that Sundance said ‘What are your thoughts?’
So, may we please have them?
How about it’s just good common sense. We do not fear we pray and trust in the Lord. If you choose to be negative that’s your problem not MAGA’s
Only thing topping “NO POST BOND” is Tucker, Joe Rogan and Trump narrate LIVE from Twitter the debate tonight. Now that would have been hilarious.
No. Absolutely not.
The single greatest risk to MAGA is physical harm to Trump. Bongino’s idea is fraught with extreme danger of utter catastrophe.
Moreover, I don’t trust the Secret Service. Trump has PRIVATE security at his inner most levels, who would NOT be able to take over the jail… only the SS can do that.
My sentiments exactly. Too risky. Beware of Fulton County. Just Post Bond and get on Trump Force One and buzz them on the way out…
I’m conflicted on this suggestion?!
While I agree with some of The Treepers comments I also think there may be an upside to doing this…
The Man is running for President of the United States of America & is the the obvious Primary winner & leading opposition candidate to claim he is a “flight risk” is beyond belief. Let them prove it.
At this point I say DO IT! I don’t think a single official will want their name associated with that action & would immediately turn this entire election on its head. The blowback on this action would be so overwhelming that an immediate crisis would ensue.
If you know that a bomb is going to go off & you can’t do anything to prevent it, then let it go off on your terms & not someone else’s.
If you believe Fanni will pull the string on this at some point anyway then don’t make her look like the professional martyr who had to do what she “needed to do”, make her do it now when she had the ability to not do it. She instantly becomes the overzealous villain who lost control of the situation.
I concur. “We will not be posting bond at this time, your honor.” would leave the judge in a real dilemma.
Perhaps, to where the Supreme Court would be forced to take all these cases.
Jail the opposition frontrunner and lose control of your jail? Or just let him go?
I wouldn’t accept any Conditions that would be a detriment to his campaign either.
I agree, something bold has to happen soon. Maybe not this exact thing that bongino suggested. But we can’t just keep pretending this is ok and the charges are legit.
I have no faith in any idea that would depend upon this Fanni lunatic’s acting like a reasonable human being.
She can’t /won’t and neither would any of her corrupt crew.
I like his suggestion to dare them to show their hand. Is there a way for him to stay in jail for a week or so and then bail out? Nevertheless, I fear for his safety.
Once the DA had him under her purview she could simply revoke the bail offer, could she not?
I don’t like the idea at all. It boxes in our President, and not on his terms, but their’s.
No. I wouldn’t trust the SS with protecting Trump. Remember Epstein?
We’re voting for Trump 100%. He’s already a “political prisoner”. $200k is really $20k after secured bond.
Just no! This is the same Bongino that saw no election fraud in 2020, and, apparently, really likes Meatball and Ramaswampy. Huge blinders on or he’s a fraud…your choice.
Bongino is a grifter
I have not kept up – did he really say he saw no election fraud?
If so, I’ve probably merely moved on from him, while forgetting the reason I chose to do so!
That was the reason I stopped listening to Bongino, and I never went back
It’s easy for Bongino to say that, he is not the one giving up his civil liberties, anyone who has worn those bracelets will agree with me. Speaking from experience, Jail is not a nice place to be, no matter who you are or who you think is watching over you. That being said he has no valid reason to not go through the process witch in itself proves that what is happening is politically motivated. Post the bond and look forward to your day in court, he has an army of lawyers behind him and millions of We the People watching.
He should have told Trump in private. To do so now would be a bad look. Bongino is not a brilliant strategist. IF he does not bond out it will be interesting to watch. But I don’t see an upside for PDJT.
He bloviates.
That is the place where a prisoner died by being eaten by bugs (bed bugs?). That place is violent, filthy and no way should DJT consider being jailed there.

At the same time Trump is appearing in GA court, 3 blocks away Catherine Englebrecht (TTV) and Gregg Phillips (OPSEC) are in a different GA court due to a case on the exact same election and topic. Greg and Catherine have evidence material to Trumps case.
Id listen to what Greg and Catherine say then consider what Bongino presents.. maybe get an adult beverage first…

PDJT does not imbibe adult beverages.
Me either! 45-year alcohol free vegetarian. (Never did much alcohol before that, but I sure ate a lot of meat!)
Nor do I. That’s a Bongino phrase
Soloman is reporting that at the time of Trump’s phone call Raffensperger knew that Fulton County was “a mess”

Let’s see…
Put the life of the (currently) most important man on the planet into the hands of leftist homicidal lunatics… ?!
I think I’d pass on that!
This cements my decision months and months to stop listening to Bongino daily and instead listen to Lou Dobbs and Jack Posobeic. They are the polar opposite personalities in the small group known as solid MAGA pundits (Dobbs gentlemanly, Posobeic fiery), but both very intelligent and witty.
Still doing some Bannon whenever I can mostly to catch that always amazing parade of great guests… Whenever he does a particularly salty and incisive rant it always gets posted singly…
I do listen to Posobiec’s podcasts as a counter to Bongino’s radio show. I wouldn’t turn Dan off because it is comedy gold.
Pay the bond, do not give them that kind of control over you.
10 minutes behind bars and Trump will OWN the joint … inmates, guards and all.
If Joe Biden can get 80 million votes staying in his basement, Trump could get 280 million from a jail cell.
Fulton County would be begging for mercy within hours.
No! Hard stop. Did the genius think about the legal gymnastics of getting him out? Prison transfers “for security reasons” being a major threat.
Can Trump trust the secret service? Really trust them?
I can see maybe the agents that cover him would have some level of loyalty, but how can we think a gov’t agency is uncorrupted?
He had his own security prior to 2016.
I’d hazard a guess they’re still close by.
His private security won’t have any authority over the jail. Bongino was saying the SS could commandeer the entire jail.
You asked whether a ‘gov’t agency is ‘uncorrupted’ and whether Preside Trump could ‘trust the secret service’.
That’s what I responded to.
MLK Jr. was unpopular until he went to jail. Then his peaceful protest approach became an effective weapon at his disposal, and the rest is history.
MLK was not, at the time, the fulcrum upon which the entire survival of the United States of America as a Constitutional Republic was resting.
PDJT is.
And because he was unpopular, MLK Jr had several orders of magnitude LESS risk to his safety in jail than Trump.
No go!
It would be quite the conundrum for Fulton County to have to clear out the jail on the orders of the Secret Service. That is quite a large jail with a large population.
Pay it in pennies.
Now THAT I can get behind.
BEAUTIFUL!!!! PERFECT!!!!!
Why not? If he can trust his SS entourage then I’d say yes, call this nobody’s bluff, take over the jail, expel all current prisoners, and watch for the next move the Willis handlers have to make.
Nothing else up to this point has been effective.
I concur.
NO. Absolutely not. No theatrical stunts. He’s bigger than life, already; we don’t need any fodder for further abuse from those who dislike him. BAD idea. It will right itself in the end; it just has to play out.
I think the best chance we have of beating the Democrats’ cheating is if Trump becomes America’s Mandela.
Sadly, to achieve this, he will have to go to jail.
I say do it, let Trump show the public who they are. Plus the MSM won’t have the ability (depending how it plays out) to state “President Trump now out on bail”, which I am sure would be in every new story about him.
I’d feel more comfortable if his private security can oversee everything not just Secret Service, so jail is out of question for me.
Bongo, lost my trust in 2016….I’ll go with Trump a real leader’s thinking for this one.
These county attorneys needs to be destroyed professionally for the harm they are inflicting on the country.
Trump pursued legal objectives via legal means. Yet according to this buffoon, Willis, that’s a crime. Going to court is a crime, bringing your attorneys makes them conspirators. And all this is premised on a nonsense indictment obtained by giving Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle popsicles to a 30 year old adolescent who wanted to swear in the president because it would be “cool”.
Bragg, who campaigned on “getting Trump” because he’s “a rich old white man” who has “gotten away with crimes”, got himself elected and alleges that ordinary business transactions (invoice received, check is cut, chart of accounts is updated) are criminal acts because they’re each in furtherance of a crime. What crime? He can’t tell you.
Then there’s the DOJ who has spent almost a decade trying to frame Trump with a crime. They raided his home and took everything in their fishing expedition. They even took his wife’s underwear. And they came up with nothing. In desperation to keep the charade going they look around to hand the ball of to someone stupid enough to take it, and they find Jack Smith. They make him special counsel. Having thus been outfitted with his suicide vest Jihad Jack rushes to bring a case before a grand jury… but in the wrong jurisdiction, then reads a DOJ summary of the alleged findings to a grand jury in the correct jurisdiction. Jack is destroying himself.
This is what I posted on Truth Social (same username) on 8/21 @8:08 p.m.: “Sir, I wish you would refuse to be bonded out. Let them put you in lockup until your poll numbers hit 90%. If they want a political prisoner, you would be like the Apostle Paul in there. Hold a daily press conference from the jail pay phone. Write a Letter from an Atlanta Jail. We’ll get a posse to come down and hold candlelight vigils 24/7. I pray that all their schemes fail and their arrows go into their own hearts.”
I think Bongino should get himself arrested and then test out his own theory.
I would rather see him force extradition from a “friendly” state and have a full hearing in public and force gov Desantis to sign off on it.
The hearing could be very interesting.
Not gonna happen. The charges they are alleging took place in Georgia.
If he isn’t in Georgia, they have to get the warrant served where he is and he doesn’t have to waive extradition.
