NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump arrived Monday morning at a Manhattan courthouse in anticipation of hours of testimony in his civil fraud trial, a spectacle of a former president and the leading Republican presidential candidate defending himself agains

The charges cut to the very heart of the brand Trump spent decades carefully crafting and put him at risk of losing control of much of his business empire.

Trump arrived in court soon before 9:30 on Monday, posting social media broadsides earlier in the morning against the judge presiding over the case and the state attorney general's office that brought the lawsuit. He will also be coming face-to-face again Monday with Engoron, whom he has lambasted on his social media site in recent days as a"wacko” and “RADICAL LEFT, DEMOCRAT OPERATIVE JUDGE” who has already “ruled viciously” against him.

Trump is also likely to be asked about how he views and values his brand – and the economic impact of his fame and time as president -- and may be asked to explain claims that his financial statements actually undervalued his wealth. “I know he’s very fired up to be here. And he thinks that this is one of the most incredible injustices that he’s ever seen. And it truly is,” the younger Trump told reporters Friday, insisting his family was winning even though the judge has already ruled mostly against them.
