BREAKING: A Fuming Judge Merchan Runs Interference for Bragg, Shouts at Trump Defense Witness Robert Costello: GET OUT OF THE COURTROOM, NOW!
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 5/20/24 | Cristina Laila

President Trump was back in a Manhattan court on Monday in Alvin Bragg’s Soviet-style ‘hush money’ lawfare trial.

The prosecutors earlier Monday rolled out their ‘star witness’ Michael Cohen, a convicted perjurer, to take the witness stand.

Cohen shocked the public when he admitted he stole tens of thousands of dollars from Trump and lied to Trump Org. CFO Allen Weisselberg.

After the prosecution rested their case, Trump’s defense team called attorney Robert Costello to the witness stand.

Costello is tough and didn’t bend for this corrupt judge and the judge was the one who got bent.

This conduct by the judge should have serious consequences.

He also didn’t allow expert testimony from the Defense. Ever hear of this? What do you do when you clearly have misconduct from the Judge?

You have to wait, to win on appeals.

That’s their goal ... keep Pres Trump off of the campaign trail ... and, make him spend even MORE money.

Disgusting, for a sham wow “case”, isn’t it?

Bragg and the DNC handpicked “judge” are making the case in favor of Trump.

Wow, I hope the jury sees this trial for what it is. I will be impressed if a Manhattan jury realizes they are being played.

This “Judge” is NO judge..Ive never in my life seen a judge be as biased, be as corrupt as this piece of sh*t running this case which should NEVER have been brought to begin with. Most judges are honorable people who abide by the LAW, this “judge” is a leftist hack who #1, loathes Donald Trump wants him in prison regardless of the facts..and #2, his daughter is making CRAP LOADS of money off of this case, Dan Goldman is sending her money every single week, this “judge” needs the money train to continue..this judge is the one who should be on trial, even before Cohen I believe

Prosecution kept objecting to every question he was asked by the defense
Doing the eye roll and staring at the judge. Well judgey maybe if you were not corrupt

This judge is creating a lot of reversible error for the Appeals Court. You have to wonder what the jurors think.

es, but how. The NY court system is totally corrupt and it is not clear how to even get this case before the Federal courts.

If I was a dedicated leftist, I still could not find The Donald guilty. Not after this shit.

Merchan is watching his multi-million dollar retirement bonus evaporate. Of course he’s angry.

I was wondering.... could Trump just allow these judges to issue a verdict and do away with the compromised jury, hit the road for campaign and deal with it on appeal. It looks like that’s going to be the outcome.
I’m afraid the left knows they will win. If they keep him from campaigning, they win.

Nice plan. As each one of these comical cases unravels , his popularity grows. They are providing support and giving Trump votes he wouldnt have had otherwise.

He threw everyone out, except for counsel.
