6553a4718f08fcf720c2caf5#block-6553a4718f08fcf720c2caf5](The Guardian)[/url]Donald Trump’s disdain for Letitia James, the New York attorney general who brought a $250m fraud case against the former president, and Arthur Engoron, the judge adjudicating it, is pretty well known. Trump was fined twice last month for breaching a gag order.
On Tuesday, Trump ramped up the rhetoric further, promoting a post on his Truth Social network calling for a citizen’s arrest of the pair “for blatant election interference and harassment”.
The frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination has long insisted that the case, and three other lawsuits against him totaling 91 separate indictments including payments to an adult movie star and attempting to overturn his 2020 election defeat, are politically motivated.
But amplifying a post calling for the arrest of a sitting judge and attorney general “Lititia [sic] James” will be seen as a dangerous development further testing the boundaries of the limited gag order against Trump concerning court officials.
The Manhattan trial, in which Engoron has already ruled Trump fraudulently overestimated the value of his properties to secure favorable terms on loans and insurance, is nearing its conclusion.
Trump and three of his children Eric, Donald Jr and Ivanka, have given testimony, and at stake is Trump’s ability to continue to conduct business in the state of New York.
