Trump deleted a social media post fuming about how prosecutors in his criminal hush money trial are withholding their schedule of planned witnesses.
Before the jury entered the courtroom Tuesday morning, Trump attorney Susan Necheles argued that Daniels should not be asked to testify "about any details of any sexual acts." That won't include "descriptions of genitalia or anything," the prosecutor said, "But it's important to us to illicit that she had sex with him, and how she felt about it."The first witness called to the stand Tuesday was Sally Franklin, a senior vice president at Random House Publishing Group. Franklin read aloud a number of passages from Trump's books, including "Trump: How to Get Rich" and "Trump: Think Like a Billionaire.
"I have just recently been told who the witness is today. This is unprecedented, no time for lawyers to prepare," Trump wrote in the post. Earlier Monday, Merchan held Trump in contempt of court once again for his 10th violation of the gag order. He fined Trump the maximum $1,000 for the latest violation, adding up to $10,000 in fines for the 10 separate infringements."The last thing I want to do is to put you in jail," Merchan said to Trump. But "I will, if necessary."
