What constitutes witness tampering and who decides that issue?

trump is on Truth Social calling the Lt. Governor of Georgia, Jeff Duncan, a few names and saying he refused a special counsel investigation (isn’t that what they’ve been doing for 2 years?) and of course called it a witch hunt.
At what point does running his mouth get him thrown in jail?

The judge decides. As for the rules – that’s up to the judge.

Since the Georgia indictments haven’t yet been handed down (may not be for a day or two), there is not a judge assigned to the Fulton County case yet. So no tampering yet.

I don’t have a legal background, but in my opinion jury tampering is getting in contact with jurors, threatening them, naming them, addressing them in any way indirectly or directly.
