Our Banana Republic

Trump has brought his surrogates to the trial to violate his gag order for him:

He went into the courtroom along with Byron Donalds, Doug Burgham and Vivek Ramaswamy. They stayed for about 45 minutes and then emerged and gave press conferences spouting all the crapola Trump isn’t allowed to say due to his gag orders.

Unbelievable:

Reporter: Mr. Trump, are you directing surrogates to speak on your behalf?



Trump: I do have a lot of surrogates and they are speaking very beautifully and they come from all over Washington… pic.twitter.com/oo2e7jusPY — MeidasTouch (@MeidasTouch) May 14, 2024

🚨 #BREAKINGNEWS We now have the Speaker of the House Mike Johnson outside the courthouse attacking Judge Merchan Daughter.

@DougBurgum: We know from the polls that President Trump is leading all over the country, and the conclusion is that the American people have already acquitted President Trump. pic.twitter.com/KDBbiZ4Ub7 — Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) May 14, 2024
