Trump Defies Judge's Restrictions in Closing Argument for New York Fraud Trial

Former President Donald Trump disregarded the judge's restrictions and addressed the court during closing arguments in his civil fraud trial in New York, criticizing the state's attorney general and defending his business practices. His attorneys made their closing arguments, urging the judge to reject the state's case seeking $370 million and a lifetime ban for Trump from working in New York real estate. The tension-filled trial, lasting over three months, featured bitter arguments and courtroom grandstanding. The judge is expected to make a ruling in the coming weeks.
