Trump melts down as Don Jr. testifies at N.Y trial: 'They just wanted to make me look bad'
Former President Donald Trump unleashed another angry rant at the judge and prosecutors participating in his $250 million fraud trial Monday.
Despite the death of his sister, who was discovered in her New York home earlier in the day, Trump focused his social media messages on his mounting legal problems while his son, Donald Trump Jr., was on the stand.
"Nobody can believe this Political Witch Hunt Trial is still going on," he wrote. "No Defaults, No Jury, No Nothing, only happy Banks etc."
Trump said the "fraud" was on the part of New York Attorney General Letitia James and New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron.
"They just wanted to make me look bad - All a big SCAM by the New York A.G. in order to get elected, and then to run for Governor, unsuccessfully," he argued.
Trump said the judge "must" withdraw a summary judgment entered against him before the trial began.
"He is devastated by the TRUTH, but just can't let it go," Trump remarked. "Any other Judge but this one would have dismissed this ridiculous lawsuit years ago. He asked me to settle for a MUCH LOWER AMOUNT, at a settlement conference, but I said NO, I DID NOTHING WRONG! Businesses will NEVER come back to New York if this HOAX is not dismissed & forgotten!"
