Trump unleashes on stand saying the court has committed fraud!

President rails against judge and New York attorney general.

NEW YORK (PNN) - November 6, 2023 - President Donald J. Trump slammed his bogus civil fraud case as a “political witch hunt” on the witness stand Monday, calling Democrat New York Attorney General Letitia James a “political hack” and lashing out at the judge, according to multiple reports.

The outburst followed a less eventful second portion of Trump’s testimony, where he answered questions about Mar-a-Lago and his Aberdeen, Scotland golf club with few interruptions from the judge, according to reports. Judge Arthur Engoron had earlier called a break after repeatedly asking Trump to focus on the questions, telling Trump’s lawyer this is “not a political rally” and to “control” his client, according to The Hill.

“It’s a disgrace that a case like this is going on; all you have to do is read the legal scholars - the papers - and you’ll know,” Trump said. “This is a political witch hunt.”

“He called me a fraud and he didn’t know anything about me,” Trump said in reference to the judge. “I think it’s fraudulent, the decision,” Trump said, per CNN. “The fraud is on the court, not on me.”

Engoron ruled prior to the trial’s start that Trump and his business committed fraud by inflating his net worth and the value of his assets, deceiving banks and insurance companies.

“Even yesterday, she’s out there saying ‘fraud, fraud.’ The fraud is her,” Trump said in reference to the attorney general.

Trump has previously attacked James for bringing the case against him.

He said earlier this month that she “defrauded the public” with the trial. In September, he attacked James on Truth Social for bringing a case against him “instead of fighting murder and violent crime, which is killing New York State.”
