Trump's Legal Troubles Threaten Campaign Focus.

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump's habit of speaking out against judges, plaintiffs, prosecutors, and other adversaries may be catching up with him as he faces new legal troubles. He is under a judge's strict order to avoid talking publicly about certain evidence in his criminal case involving hush money payments to a porn star, and if he violates that order, he could be held in contempt. Additionally, he has repeatedly vilified writer E. Jean Carroll even after a jury found that he defamed her, and he may face financial penalties and other punishments for his outbursts.
