Former President Donald Trump expressed his desire to testify at his fraud trial but claimed a narrow gag order prevented him from doing so.
The gag order, imposed by Judge Engoron, led to fines and a threat of imprisonment.
Despite plans to testify, Trump announced it wouldn’t happen, and later lashed out at the judge and attorney general in a social media post. (Trending: Dr. Fauci Says the Unthinkable About Going To Church)
“I wanted to testify on Monday, despite the fact that I already testified successfully, answering all questions having to do with the Fake, No Victims, No Jury lawsuit, thrown at me by the Corrupt Racist A.G., Letitia James, and presided over by a Trump hating judge who suffers from a massive case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, and is a puppet for the CROOKED A.G.” wrote Trump.
“Anyway, the Judge, Arthur Engoron, put a GAG ORDER on me, even when I testify, totally taking away my constitutional right to defend myself,” he continued.
“We are appealing, but how would you like to be a witness and not be allowed free snd honest speech,” posited Trump.
“THE TRIAL IS RIGGED. I DID NOTHING WRONG!!!” exclaimed the former president.
However, the gag order doesn’t prevent Trump from testifying in court, only from attacking court staffers, which he continued to do during the time the order was on hold pending appeal.
