Judge Merchan’s daughter is making millions doing online fundraising for Democrats, including Democrats raising money off the Trump trial.
See what I did there? I violated the Trump gag order.
Republican politicians have done the same, at least according to progressives outraged by the recent procession of top Republicans who have trooped to New York City to assail the prosecution of Donald Trump.
The cavalcade of Republicans, who have indeed said very similar things about the trial, including noting the partisan work of the judge’s daughter, may be a sly way for Trump to get around the gag order (the judge could look into whether Trump has been directing his allies to deliver lines that he can’t).
