Trump in storm over judge attack
Evening Standard
|April 05, 2023
DONALD TRUMP was warned today that he was "walking a tightrope" after he launched a furious attack on the judge presiding over his historic criminal case in New York.
Just hours after pleading not guilty to 34 criminal charges relating to the alleged falsifying of business records, the former president took aim at judge Juan Merchan and New York district attorney Alvin Bragg in a typically bombastic speech to supporters from the ballroom of his Mara-Lago residence in Florida.
Despite being warned by Judge Merchan not to make comments that would "incite violence" or "create civil unrest", Mr Trump described him as a "Trump-hating judge with a Trump-hating wife and family".
Casting the prosecution as a politically-motivated campaign by Democrats to stop his return to the White House, Mr Trump went on to say that Mr Merchan's daughter worked for Democrat vice-president Kamala Harris.
