For his misleading business documents case, former president Donald Trump criticized the speed of the test in Manhattan, accusing Judge Juan Merchan and the prosecution of trying to rush it in order to stifle his election campaign.
This case, which it should never have brought, should have been brought seven or eight years previously. Because they want to bring it up right before the election, particularly given that we are leading in every poll, Trump said in a statement to reporters on Thursday evening.
Trump said,” They’re trying to rush to get it done before the vote so that they can hurt me, so they can harm their political player.” ” They’re rushing. All this jump. There’s no hurry. These tests take long. But this one, they’re rushing it. We arrive early in the morning and depart in the evening.
Trump claimed Merchan wanted to “get this thing done quickly before the vote” by requesting an extension of judge time.
Court is not in session on Friday, as , Trump especially requested the day off so that he can attend his brother Barron’s high school graduation service.
Trump’s group is scheduled to present their whole case on Monday, and both sides may start hearing arguments on Tuesday.
