TL;DR Summary

Manhattan prosecutors have accused Donald Trump of violating a gag order by attacking the judge's daughter on social media and making false claims about her. Trump's lawyers argue that the gag order does not prohibit him from commenting about the judge's daughter, a political consultant who has worked on campaigns for Trump's rival, President Joe Biden. The trial, involving allegations of falsifying payment records to cover up negative stories during his 2016 presidential campaign, is set to begin on April 15. The gag order bars Trump from making public statements about jurors, potential witnesses, or court staff, and a violation could result in contempt of court, fines, or jail time.
