Former President Donald Trump made his way to the Manhattan courthouse for what is anticipated to be the last day of prosecution witnesses before his defense team initiates calling their own witnesses. Trump took the opportunity to highlight his growing support in battleground states, citing significant leads over President Biden in states like Nevada.
During his appearance, Trump reiterated his disapproval of the ongoing criminal trial against him, specifically targeting Judge Juan Merchan, whom he referred to as a 'conflicted' judge who, in his opinion, should not preside over the case. Trump adamantly stated, 'There was no crime. The crime is they're pursuing this case.'
The final witness for the prosecution, ex-lawyer Michael Cohen, is expected to continue his cross-examination during Thursday's proceedings. Once Cohen concludes his testimony, Trump's defense team will have the opportunity to present their own witnesses in the courtroom.
The atmosphere in the courthouse remains tense as both sides prepare to present their arguments and evidence in this high-profile case. The public eagerly awaits the unfolding of events as the trial progresses.
