All through the hush-money trial, Donald Trump has excoriated Judge Juan Merchan and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg as corrupt thugs.
So, you might assume that Trump will blame them and not the lead defense attorney Todd Blanche if the case ends in a conviction.
But Trump has his own logic.

And yet he was quick to blame his defense attorney in that case, Susan Necheles.
