“Donald Trump plans to show up in person for at least the first week of a civil trial set to open in New York on Monday in which he and his business empire are accused of persistent fraud,” Politico reports.
“Trump’s plan, disclosed by his lawyers in a separate case, sets up the potential of a tense showdown with Justice Arthur Engoron, the Manhattan judge who is overseeing New York Attorney General Letitia James’ lawsuit aimed at dismantling Trump’s businesses.
Trump has repeatedly insulted Engoron on social media.”
