As Donald Trump’s criminal trial approaches, his frustration with the legal system has reached a boiling point. In a desperate attempt to influence public opinion, he has resorted to lashing out at potential witnesses and even the judge’s family, earning him a gag order from Judge Juan Merchan.
But Trump’s desire to speak out against his perceived enemies has not been silenced, and he has found a creative workaround: using GOP allies as surrogates to peddle his talking points.
Tuberville’s Slip-Up: Senator Reveals True Motives for Attending Trump’s Trial
Trump has been accused of “editing” and “making notations” to quotes his partisan allies will make to reporters, allowing him to indirectly criticize key figures in his trial while avoiding direct violation of the gag order.
Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) recently admitted that his appearance at Trump’s trial and subsequent comments were intended to “overcome this gag order” and speak on Trump’s behalf.
This tactic raises questions about whether Trump is indirectly violating the gag order and whether Judge Merchan will take action against him. The situation highlights Trump’s continued disregard for legal boundaries and his willingness to exploit any opportunity to shape public opinion.
