During his testimony this morning as part of an ongoing fraud trail against him and his company, former president Donald Trump exploded under cross-examination and accused the court of being a “fraud” and also attacked New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought the case against him.
The disgraced ex-president began complaining from the moment he took the stand, telling presiding judge Arthur Engoron that he shouldn’t have to explain anything because all of his financial statements included a disclaimer.
In response, Engoron told Trump, “If you want to learn about the disclaimer clause, read my opinion — for the first time.”
Things went downhill from there, with Trump suggesting the court had no right to question him or his business practices.
“I think it’s fraudulent the decision. The fraud is on the court,” Trump insisted.
Then came the lashing out at James, with Trump railing, “The fraud is her!”
That was followed by this outburst:
“He called me a fraud, and he didn’t know anything about me!” Trump shouted. “You knew nothing about me…you believe this political hack back there!”
Keep digging that hole deeper, Donnie. The only person you hurt is yourself.
