During a recent court hearing, Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass highlighted some of former President Donald Trump's recent posts on his Truth Social platform, suggesting that they may have violated the gag order prohibiting statements about potential witnesses.
One of the posts in question was made on Wednesday, where Trump referred to 'two sleazebags.' The context of the post indicated that the individuals being referred to were Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels.
The gag order was put in place to prevent any interference with the legal proceedings and to ensure a fair trial. By making statements that could potentially influence or intimidate witnesses, Trump may have breached the terms of the order.
Prosecutor Steinglass raised concerns about the impact of Trump's posts on the ongoing case and emphasized the importance of upholding the integrity of the legal process.
Trump's use of social media has been a subject of scrutiny in various legal matters, with critics arguing that his posts could undermine the impartiality of the judicial system.
As the case continues to unfold, the court will likely address the issue of Trump's social media activity and determine whether any sanctions are warranted for violating the gag order.
It remains to be seen how Trump's online presence will factor into the legal proceedings and whether his posts will have any bearing on the outcome of the case.
