Trump Posts Clip Flaming Judge’s Daughter—Hours After Gag Order Ruling
Just hours after a New York judge expanded a gag order to stop Donald Trump from making nasty attacks against his daughter, the ex-president posted a clip to Truth Social on Tuesday in which the Fox News commentator Brian Kilmeade slammed her.
Loren Merchan, who runs a political consulting firm that has worked with Democrats, has become the focal point of Trump’s attacks against her dad, Judge Juan Merchan, as part of a long-shot attempt to have him ousted as the judge presiding over his hush-money criminal case in New York.
Tuesday’s clip features attorney Jonathan Turley speaking with Kilmeade and other presenters on Fox & Friends. The two criticized Judge Merchan’s ruling Monday night that expanded Trump’s gag order, which had previously barred him only from attacking court staff, prosecutors, and witnesses. Now Trump is also forbidden from publicly attacking the families of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and Judge Merchan.
