Trump singling out Judge Juan Merchan's wife and daughter, who have nothing to do with his criminal case, was 'not something personal,' attorney James Trusty claimed.
“I don’t have any experience with this judge, and again, my practice as somebody who’s been in the criminal justice lane for about 35, 36 years is to not jump on to any bandwagon when it comes to criticizing,” Trusty said. He then insisted that Trump singling out Merchan’s wife and daughter, both of whom have nothing to do with his criminal case, wasn’t “personal.”
“I think the criticisms of the family were not something personal. It was pointing out that they have a bias—that they have a political interest that is contrary to President Trump’s,” Trusty claimed.
