Trump referred to\u2063 Engoron as a &#8220;psycho&#8221; and accused him and his principal clerk, Alison Greenfield, of being\u200d politically biased and corrupt \u2064against \u2064him.<\/p>\n<h3>Engoron&#8217;s Gag \u200bOrder and Trump&#8217;s Legal Battle<\/h3>\n<p>Last month,\u200b Engoron imposed a gag order on Trump during his $250 million trial. However, the order was temporarily lifted last week by a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-unleashes-on-new-york-judge-and-clerk-amid-gag-order-limbo\/\" title=\"Trump criticizes New York judge and clerk amidst gag order uncertainty\">state appeals court panel<\/a>.\u2063 Trump&#8217;s legal team argues that the order, which prevented \u200dhim from scrutinizing Engoron&#8217;s staff and others against his team, is unconstitutional and \u200bnot specifically tailored. This is especially significant as Trump remains the front-runner for the 2024\u200d Republican primary.<\/p>\n<p>Defending the gag order, lawyers presented a sworn statement from a court official \u2062detailing the\u2062 numerous threats\u2064 made against Greenfield, \u200c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/newsom-defends-hunters-business-deals-joe-bidens-age-for-re-election\/\" title=\"Newsom supports Hunter's business deals, Biden's eligibility for re-election.\">including phone \u200ccalls<\/a>, \u200bvoicemail messages, \u200cand emails. These\u2063 threats, some of which \u2063were antisemitic, have caused daily harassment and are \u2064considered serious and \u2064credible by Charles Hollon\u200d of the New York\u2063 Public \u2062State Court System Safety \u200bDepartment\u2019s Judicial Threats Assessment Unit.<\/p>\n<h3>Trump&#8217;s Fines and Engoron&#8217;s Findings<\/h3>\n<p>Engoron\u200b has \u200cfined Trump \u2064twice, totaling $15,000, \u2064for \u2063violating the gag order both online and in-person. Trump&#8217;s attorneys argue that these fines were excessive and that Engoron \u2063did not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/waukesha-killer-found-guilty-of-murder-in-christmas-parade-attack\/\" title=\"Waukesha Killer Found Guilty of Murder in Christmas Parade Attack\">follow court rules<\/a>\u2064 when issuing\u200d them.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate case brought by New York state Attorney\u200c General Letitia James, Engoron has already ruled \u2062that\u2062 Trump, his sons,\u200b and \u200bhis \u200cbusiness engaged in financial fraud by inflating the\u2064 value of their assets. Engoron is currently deliberating on the \u2063damages through \u200da\u200b bench trial, \u200bwhich does not involve \u2063a jury.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the ongoing legal battles, Trump&#8217;s Thanksgiving Day post reflects \u2064his frustration and \u200dcriticism \u2062towards Engoron and Greenfield, further intensifying the already contentious\u2063 proceedings.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How do legal \u200cexperts feel about Trump&#8217;s public criticism of judges and its potential impact on public\u2064 trust in \u200dthe judiciary?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  Jenny and\u200d his law clerk, Mark Harris. Trump&#8217;s criticism targeted \u2062their handling of his ongoing\u2062 legal battles and\u200d alleged biases that he believed influenced the outcome of his cases.<\/p>\n<p>The post, which was shared on various <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-new-acting-attorney-general-jeff-rosen-recently-wrote-an-essay-on-foreign-influence-in-us-elections-this-tells-us-a-little-about-his-knowledge-of-whats-going-on-today\/\" title=\"The New Acting Attorney General Jeff Rosen Recently Wrote an Essay on Foreign Influence in US Elections \u2013 This Tells Us A Little About His Knowledge of What\u2019s Going On Today\">social media platforms<\/a>, quickly gained attention due to its inflammatory language and\u2063 direct\u200b attack on the judiciary \u2064system. Trump\u2062 accused Judge Jenny and his law clerk, Harris, of\u2062 being politically motivated and seeking to undermine his presidency.<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s critique focused on the \u200bfact that\u200b numerous legal cases involving his former associates and political allies had not been resolved \u2062to his satisfaction. He claimed that Judge Jenny and Harris deliberately delayed \u2062rulings, obstructing\u200d justice and\u2064 preventing him\u200d from clearing his name.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the former \u2064president accused the judge and his law clerk of harboring personal biases against him. Trump argued \u2063that their alleged political affiliations clouded their objectivity and prevented \u200bthem \u2064from \u2063making fair decisions.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth mentioning that the Thanksgiving \u2062\u200bDay \u2064post is not the first time Trump has criticized the judiciary system or specific judges. \u200cThroughout his presidency, he\u200c frequently voiced his concerns over what he deemed to be \u200cbiased\u200c judges, particularly in cases related to\u200c immigration and border security.<\/p>\n<p>However, this Thanksgiving post \u200bis notable for\u200b its timing\u2062 and the \u2064explicit nature of the criticism. As the\u200c nation\u200b gathered\u200d to celebrate a day of gratitude and unity, Trump&#8217;s words \u2064stood in stark contrast to the spirit of the\u2063 holiday.<\/p>\n<p>Legal experts are divided \u2063on the appropriateness of Trump&#8217;s public criticism of judges. \u2063While some argue that it is \u200chis \u2062right to express his dissatisfaction with the \u200dlegal system, others believe that \u2063such attacks undermine \u2063public trust \u2064in \u200bthe judiciary and can lead to\u200d unfounded accusations.<\/p>\n<p>Judge Jenny and Harris have not \u2062publicly responded to Trump&#8217;s criticism, as it \u2062is generally considered unprofessional for judges or their clerks to engage in public \u200ddisputes with individuals involved \u200din\u200c ongoing cases.<\/p>\n<p>The former president&#8217;s Thanksgiving \u200bDay post serves as a reminder of the deep \u200ddivisions that \u200dcontinue to exist within American society. It highlights the contentious relationship\u200b between Trump \u200band the judicial branch \u2064during his\u200d time in office and the ongoing\u2064 battles he faces\u200c even after leaving the White House.<\/p>\n<p>As Trump&#8217;s legal challenges persist, it remains \u200bto be seen how his public criticism will \u2063impact the outcome of \u2062his cases or his \u2063standing in the \u200ceyes of his supporters and critics alike. But\u200d one thing is certain, when \u2064it comes to expressing\u2062 his dissatisfaction with the\u2064 judicial\u2063 system, Trump is never one to shy away from controversy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former President Donald Trump expressed his dissatisfaction with New York Judge Arthur Engoron, overseeing his civil lawsuit, in a Thanksgiving Day social media post.
