Judge Juan Merchan has altered Donald Trump’s gag order, allowing the former president to comment on witnesses and jurors in his hush-money trial.
However, Trump is still barred from talking about lawyers and staff for the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office plus any of their family members, as well as the court itself. Merchan also said Trump could talk generally about the jurors but is prohibited from revealing their identities.
The ruling is a big win for Trump just two days out from his presidential debate against President Joe Biden given it will allow him to attack his former lawyer Michael Cohen and porn star Stormy Daniels among others.
