Trump's Legal Woes Threaten Campaign Amid Growing GOP Field.

Donald Trump's habit of making public statements about his legal troubles is drawing attention from prosecutors and legal experts, who warn that his comments could be used against him in ongoing investigations. Trump's recent statements, including claims that he had the right to take classified documents and that a Georgia elections official "owed him" votes, could be seen as incriminating or complicate his legal team's ability to defend him. Legal scholars note that prosecutors may not be able to use all of Trump's comments if they are not relevant to the charges, but his public statements could still harm his defense strategy and make it difficult for him to testify.
