Trump's Fiery Departure from NYC Fraud Trial Sparks Controversy
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump left his New York fraud trial after launching tirades against the presiding judge and the state attorney general. Trump disparaged AG Tish James as an "animal" and accused state Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron of being controlled by Democrats. Trump's comments came after Engoron imposed a limited gag order on him. The attorney general described Trump's remarks as offensive and baseless, while Trump's attorneys filed an appeal of Engoron's ruling. The trial will continue, with the AG seeking to hold Trump liable for additional claims and recover $250 million in "ill-gotten gains."
