Trump says all the cases against him are a ‘ploy’ to help Biden win in wild press conference ripping into Letitia James and E. Jean Carroll – moments after his lawyers were told to ‘control’ him during fraud trial outburst
Donald Trump went scorched earth on Joe Biden, New York Attorney General Letitia James and his rape accuser E. Jean Carroll during a raucous press conference during a break in his fraud trial in Manhattan.
A crowd inside the 77-year-old Wall Street skyscraper cheered as he answered questions about Iowa, the fraud case, the prosecutions against him and “crook” Biden.
The former president’s appearance came shortly after he made a sudden statement in court, telling Judge Arthur Engoron that he had done “nothing wrong” and that the city was “paying” him for what he experienced.
Engoron paused his outburst and urged attorney Christopher Kise to “keep his client under control” before Trump walked away.
The family business of former presidential lawyer Alina Habba Trump had “single-handedly changed the New York skyline.”

Trump then laid out all the problems with the $250 million fraud case, claiming the trial was unprecedented and emphasizing that any prosecutions against him are a ploy by Biden and the Democrats.
He also said presidents who don’t enjoy full immunity will be “ineffective” when asked about his lawyers claiming he could avoid prosecution for the murder of a political rival.
“My legal issues, all of them, all of them – civil and criminal – were all created by Joe Biden. Crooked Joe Biden. This is something that has never happened in this country.
‘It is a shame. It’s a witch hunt in the truest sense of the word. It is election interference.”
“It’s all a conspiracy to put Biden in power,” he added, before sharing a report that AG James had visited the president at the White House “several times.”
He then claimed he never met writer E. Jean Carroll, who has accused him of rape and is suing him for defamation.
“I don’t know who the hell she is,” he said, again claiming her case against him was “very unfair.”
Trump did confirm that he would participate in the defamation trial against E. Jean Carroll that will begin next week.

The former president’s appearance came shortly after he made a sudden statement in court, telling Judge Arthur Engoron that he had done “nothing wrong” and that the city “should pay” him for what he experienced .
Trump made these comments after his appearance at the New York Supreme Court earlier today.
Hundreds of mostly tourists lined up against the barriers to catch a glimpse of the 45th president.
Not long before his arrival, a woman could be seen angrily shouting obscenities from an apartment building above the street, apparently at those gathered below.
As his motorcade drove onto the street and stopped outside the skyscraper, cries of “f*** Joe Biden” came from supporters and applause erupted.
Surrounded by security personnel, the president raised his fists at the crowd that had gathered.
After a short wave he was quickly led inside. As he left, he said “thank you” to a waiting press group before being driven away.
