A day after insulting the New York judge by calling him “rogue, and “out of control.” Trump asked him to help him get his case dismissed.
Trump asked for dismissal
The former president and GOP’s president hopeful wrote, “Now that it has been agreed in Court that Mar-a-Lago is WORTH 50 to 100 times the Value the Racist & Incompetent Attorney General of New York State, Letitia’ Peekaboo’ James, ascribed to it (18 Million Dollars), & likewise other assets that were valued crazily low by this ‘Monster; that has allowed Violent Crime in New York to reach EPIDEMIC levels, and dangerous illegal migrants to roam free all over our State, we hope the Judge will TERMINATE his first ruling of fraud in that he was given false and ridiculous information by the Trump Deranged Lunatic, A.G. James.”
Trump’s continued sharing on Truth Social
The ex-president shared, “In actuality, I am WORTH FAR MORE than the numbers put down on the Financial Statements, not less.”
But before asking for dismissal, Trump vented some more
A day before he wrote that the Judge “will TERMINATE his first ruling of fraud,” Trump went all out with caps lock, writing, “JUST ARRIVED AT THE COURTHOUSE TO FIGHT A CORRUPT & RACIST ATTORNEY GENERAL, AND A ROGUE, OUT OF CONTROL, TRUMP HATING JUDGE, WHO REFUSES TO FOLLOW THE APPELLATE COURT DECISION WHICH KNOKS OUT 80 [percent] OF THIS SHAM CASE. THIS IS THE CONTINUATION OF THE GREATEST WITCH HUNT OF ALL TIME. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!”
Judge Arthur Engoron verbally spared Trump’s lawyers
Susanne Craig of The New York Times was inside the courtroom, and on MSNBC, she told Alina Habba was “very animated,” adding that discussions between Habba and Engoron became “very heated.”
Habba was reportedly yelling
“She was saying that Letitia James—she had run simply ‘to get Trump,’ and this was just all about this vendetta that Letitia James has,” Craig said. “And then she started in on repeating some of the claims that they’ve already gotten into trouble for.”
Habba’s audience
Trump’s lawyer and legal spokesperson was the star of the beginning of the trial, and Craig explained, “Her audience was an audience of one. It was Donald Trump.”
Trump got a gag order
Judge Arthur Engoron admonished Trump after he attacked one of his clerks on social media. The Judge addressed the court, “This morning, one of the defendants posted on (a) social media account a disparaging untrue and personally-identifying post about a member of my staff. Although I have since ordered the post deleted, and apparently it was, it was also emailed out to millions of other recipients.”
The Judge had more to say
He continued, “Personal attacks of any member of my court staff are unacceptable and inappropriate, and I will not tolerate them.” “Consider this statement an order forbidding all parties from posting, emailing, or speaking publicly about any members of my staff,” Engoron said. “Failure to abide by this … will result in serious sanctions.”
Trump’s post
Trump posted on Truth Social slamming Engoron’s clerk, claiming she was a “girlfriend” to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, who is also a married man. The post had a photo of the clerk and Schumer with the caption, “How disgraceful!” Trump wrote. “This case should be dismissed immediately.”
Trump updated the reporters
Talking to reports in front of the New York courtroom, the likely GOP nominee for the 2024 elections stated, “This is a judge that should be disbarred. This is a judge that should be out of office,” adding, “This is a judge that some people say could be charged criminally for what he’s doing. He’s interfering with an election, and it’s a disgrace.”
And continued
Trump fumed, “This is a judge that some people say could be charged criminally for what he’s doing. He’s interfering with an election, and it’s a disgrace.” He also blasted the AG Tish James, “This guy’s [the Judge] getting away with murder. And his clerk should not be allowed to be in his ear with every single question. You should take a look at her. She hates Trump even more than he does.”
Trump’s team mistake
There are no jurors in this trial, and Leo Terrell, who expressed his support for Trump in 2020, explained on Fox News, “I’ve been practicing law for thirty years. There are usually some forms where you have to make a check, a little ‘x’ there, saying you want a jury trial.” Trump’s team could have appealed but didn’t.
