Donald Trump’s psychologist niece Mary Trump was apparently spot on when she said her uncle may soon violate the limited gag orders imposed on him.
What Happened: Speaking outside a New York Court, Donald Trump took aim at Judge Arthur Engoron, who is presiding over a civil trial in connection with the former president and his organization fraudulently inflating the value of his real estate and assets for business gains.
In a video clip shared by Mary Trump, her uncle is seen saying “This case is a disgrace to our nation. We have no rights whatsoever. Any company coming to New York would be crazy because it is a setup, it’s a rigged trail.”
“And we have a hostile group of people. We have a very hostile judge. I hate to say that we have a very, very hostile judge and I think everybody knows that,” he said.
Commenting on the remarks, Mary Trump said, “Donald [Trump] just attacked Judge Engoron, again.” “Only [Jim] Jordon’s [sic] shot at being Speaker lasted less time than Donald’s self-restraint,” she added.
Why It’s Important: Following representation by the federal prosecution, led by special counsel Jack Smith, U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Columbia Tanya Chutkan, who is overseeing the 2020 election subversion case against Donald Trump, imposed a narrow gag order on the former president.
In an interview Mary Trump hosted this week, she and her guest concurred that Donald Trump will most likely violate the gag order and end up in jail.
Mary Trump’s Jordan reference can be traced back to the failure of Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OHIO) to get the Republican nomination initially. After the initial sub, he was later endorsed by the GOP members only to lose in the first two rounds of voting held in the House.
