"Trump Enrages Judge as He Boils Over on the Witness Stand""At one point, a frustrated Judge Arthur Engoron ordered a 15-minute recess so Trump’s legal team could coach him on proper courtroom behavior."
As per the article:
"When Donald Trump took the stand Monday in his $250 million fraud trial, the twice-impeached ex-president played all the hits. He was occasionally flustered, sometimes confused, often combative, and deflected any accusations whatsoever of wrongdoing, serving up boasts about his business acumen and real estate portfolio of what he described as the world’s finest properties.
Trump veered wildly off-script, insulted New York Attorney General Letitia James, demeaned the judge, whined that the trial was “very unfair,” and insisted that no one with money to lend should ever believe the Trump Organization’s own financial statements. Confronted with conflicting data in documents that seemed to point to inflated values of a New York City property, Trump dissembled before sulking, “This is so crazy.”
He also tested the judge’s patience from the get-go, drawing numerous rebukes for not answering yes-or-no questions with a simple “yes” or “no.”"
So far, the only real surprise is that TFG hasn't been charged with contempt of court. Still, this particular trial isn't over yet.
