MSNBC host nicole wallace On Friday’s live show, he angrily threw the script aside while discussing former President Trump’s social media attacks on a judge’s daughter.
“So it was time to do something different,” Wallace said, tossing the script aside. “Oh no, we’re not having this conversation anymore! Before we were ready today, we broadcast countless news bulletins about a judge and his request for a gag order due to threats against his children.”
Wallace, along with former federal judge Michael Ruttig, MSNBC’s John Heilman, Lisa Rubin and Glenn Kirshner, are furious with him and have asked the “highest court in the nation” to delay “all federal criminal trials.” He said he asked for cooperation.
“Donald Trump brazenly and repeatedly attacks not just judges,” she said. “Judges don’t have a Secret Service to protect them.”
“Donald Trump hasn’t changed at all, so what are we going to change?” Wallace added.
Luttig argued that Trump’s goal is to “delegitimize” the decision so that if the court rules against him, Americans can overrule it.
“We all know that from the time the former president first launched attacks — vicious attacks — on federal and state courts and their judges, his goal was to delegitimize those courts, and when , and he must understand that if he had passed a judgment against him, it would have been to annul it.On the various issues he is accused of, he must understand that if not a significant portion of the population “But at least his followers will dismiss these sentences against him as politically inspired and motivated,” he said.
Manhattan prosecutors asked a judge Friday to clarify a gag order imposed on Trump following the former commander-in-chief’s social media posts criticizing the judge’s daughter.
He suggested that New York judge Juan Marchan may be serving his daughter’s interests as a political consultant for the Democratic Party. President Trump, whose daughter Lauren Marchan, a judge whose company has worked on the campaigns of President Joe Biden and other Democrats, recently said it had the “express goal” of seeing him jailed. He claimed to have posted the picture he drew on social media.
“Judge Juan Melchan is completely compromised and should be immediately removed from this Trump non-litigation,” President Trump wrote on Thursday. “His daughter Lauren is a passionate Trump hater, and even though she admits to having discussed me with her father, her father gagged me.”
On March 26, Marchan imposed a gag order on Trump in the hush money case, pointing to the former president’s “previous extrajudicial statements” that established “sufficient risk to the administration of justice.” He said there was.
Mr. Marchan said President Trump made public statements or directed others about potential participants, including witnesses, attorneys in cases other than Mr. Bragg, court officials, DA’s office employees, and family members of those employees. I ordered that I could not do that.
