Trump's Defense Wraps Up in New York Fraud Trial

TL;DR Summary
Lawyers for former President Donald Trump concluded their defense in the New York civil fraud trial with testimony from an accounting professor who called the case against Trump "absurd." The trial, which has been marked by tension between Trump and New York Attorney General Letitia James, will now move to the rebuttal phase before closing arguments begin in January. Trump decided not to testify, citing a gag order imposed by the judge that he claimed violated his constitutional right to free speech.
