A Manhattan judge on Wednesday questioned whether Donald Trump moments earlier had just engaged in another "blatant" violation of a gag order, days after warning the former president that another breach could send him to jail.
On Oct. 3, Trump smeared Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron's principal law clerk Allison Greenfield on his website Truth Social, until the judge ordered Trump to delete the post.
But the attack on Greenfield remained on Trump's campaign site for 17 days, prompting Engoron to fine Trump $5,000 on Friday.
