“People are starting to see what a great company I built through the trial started by the Racist Attorney General of New York State, Letitia ‘Peekaboo’ James. It was all supposed to be private, but in many ways it is exposing great success. Incredible assets, lots of cash, & it only gets better,” posted 1:37AM

He posted another at 7:32AM calling a "deranged lunatic" & a "monster" & attacking 's ruling last week, which found that Trump had committed for years.

’ office told that Trump’s attys never asked for a jury trial, & even if they had, it is likely they would not have received one.

“Many false arguments are circulating regarding President Trump’s Trial in New York & the possibility of a jury trial,” Trump spox & said in a statement.

A spox also disputed claims by James’ office in a statement: “The Attorney General filed this case under a consumer protection statute that denies the right to a jury. There was never an option to choose a jury trial. It is unfortunate that a jury won’t be able to hear how absurd the merits of this case are & conclude no wrongdoing ever happened.”

Shortly after arriving at the courthouse, went on a attacking as he denied wrongdoing in the case.

“This case should be dismissed,” he said. “This is not a case & she should probably be dismissed also because she’s terrible & grossly incompetent.”

“Her numbers are fraudulent, she’s a fraud,” he added. “The numbers are fraudulent, & this case should be dismissed & to get on to violent crime & solving the problems of New York City & New York state.”

The AG's office is trying to show a of behavior through documents bolstering 's claim, indicating he & the accounting company he worked for relied on docs that Trump & his company provided them.

That included entering into a letter that , then the 's CFO, sent , which read, "We are for the preparation & fair presentation of the statement on financial condition in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States."

During the break told reporters that he will take the stand in the case "at the appropriate time." (whenever that is)

"I will," Trump said.

had a lot to say on the 1st day of the against him & his company. Speaking to reporters at a Manhattan courthouse on Mon, he dismissed the judge as a “rogue” justice & said he did not “think the people of this country are going to stand for it.” And he focused on the ofcl who filed the lawsuit against him, NY’s AG, .

“This is a disgrace,” he said, “& you ought to go after this attorney general.”

The remark urging people to “go after” a top elected ofcl in NY, by a fmr president whose invective has become a familiar backdrop of life, was part of a of increasingly sharp language from .

Since he first became a political candidate in the 2016 presidential race, has , suggesting he wanted to a & offering to pay the legal fees if his supporters struck protesters at his rallies. But as Trump has been 4 times in 4 in the last 5 months, & now faces a in , his speech has escalated.

’s public remarks, whether online, in interviews or at rallies, have always had the potential for incendiary effects. A number of defendants prosecuted over the attack on the Capitol on , 2021, said they believed they were acting on Trump’s orders.

Part of what has changed is that his remarks now come at a time when the have already stoked among his supporters & when attacks against , & around the country have increased.

Back to the #TrumpTrial #day2

And - of course - again, during the lunch break, #Trump slammed the judge's #LawClerk (another civil servant targeted by TFG)

Trump blasted Judge Arthur #Engoron's #law #clerk on #socialmedia shortly before the lunch break, & then amplified the #attack in brief remarks to reporters afterwards.

(So presumably he posted the first attack while in the courtroom in the presence of his lawyers)

#Trump had posted on his social media platform a different user's IG post showing #Engoron's #LawClerk at an event where she posed w/Sen Maj Ldr Chuck Schumer. The IG post questioned why she was "palling around"(sic) w/Schumer.

Trump's post went farther, referring to the #clerk as "Schumer’s girlfriend" & said she "is running this case against me. How disgraceful! This case should be dismissed immediately."

told reporters outside the courtroom soon after, “You saw what was just put out about Schumer & the principal clerk? That is disgraceful.” (put out by him)

Trump re-entered the courtroom ~1:30PM ET. He is "likely" to watch the trial for the rest of the day, per 2 aides.

It's unclear what led to Trump's decision (), but that would mean he'll be able to watch at least some of his attorney's of .

In addition to ’s horrid remarks, his campaign bashed judge during the lunch break

is a "far-left Democrat" who says he knows "more about the value of the business empire Of (no idea why of is capitalized) President Trump than his banks, business partners, accountants, employees, & insurers," the email said.

The email also pointed to excerpts of articles from websites that have been critical of the judge.

@Nonilex@masto.ai avatar

Court resumed at 3PM, after delays, once it did, #Engoron noted #Trump’s #socialmedia #post about his #LawClerk. The post was also emailed to millions of people.

Engoron said he ordered the post to be taken down & that #PersonalAttacks on his #staff were unacceptable & would not be tolerated. He said that he previously warned the parties about such #attacks yesterday. He finished: “Consider this a #GagOrder on all parties w/respect to posting or publicly speaking about any member of my staff.”
