Donald Trump used the closing arguments in his civil fraud trial to launch an attack on New York Attorney General Letitia James. He was denied permission to deliver full closing arguments and was only allowed to make brief additional comments after his lawyer had spoken. Trump accused James of persecuting him, stating that she hates him and wants to make sure he never wins again. The judge attempted to interrupt Trump’s comments and told his lawyer to control him. The trial is one of multiple criminal and civil cases Trump faces as he seeks to return to the White House. The state’s lawyers have sought to prove that Trump consistently overvalued many of his assets before entering politics. Trump is scheduled to go on trial in March for conspiring to overturn the 2020 elections and in May for taking classified documents after leaving the presidency.
