Trump's Testimony in the Fraud Trial

During his testimony in the fraud trial, former President Donald Trump appeared to be focused on speaking to the court of public opinion rather than the judge. He used familiar phrases like 'political witch hunt' and 'unfair trial' to send a message of defiance. Trump's attorneys faced difficulty in controlling him, and the judge warned that he would draw negative inferences if control wasn't established. The trial focuses on Trump's business empire, with the potential consequences of fines or even shutting down parts of his organization.
