Donald Trump tells judge to 'leave my children alone'

Donald Trump lashed out on Wednesday at the judge presiding over his civil fraud trial in New York and told him ahead of testimony by his eldest son, Donald Jr, to"leave my children alone".

If all goes according to the court schedule, Donald Jr will testify today, followed tomorrow by Eric Trump. Mr Trump himself may be questioned on Monday, a day shy of one year before the 5 November, 2024 presidential election that he hopes will sweep him back into the White House. "The Banks and Insurance Companies were paid in full, no defaults, they all made money, and there is no Victim " Mr Trump said on Truth Social.Mr Trump also said he would appeal a partial gag order imposed by Judge Engoron on 3 October that bars him from attacking court staff - though not the judge himself.

Mr Trump is not required to attend the trial, but he has shown up sporadically, using his appearances to portray himself as the victim of a supposed Democratic plot to derail his White House campaign.
