"Trump's Fiery Closing Arguments and Judge's Warning in Civil Fraud Trial"

Donald Trump delivered a rapid, breathless statement in court during closing arguments in a fraud trial, painting himself as a victim of political persecution and seeking damages for what he's gone through. The judge had previously denied him the opportunity to personally address the court due to concerns about his remarks turning into a campaign stunt. The trial, which began in October, centers on accusations of fraud against Trump and his associates, with the New York Attorney General seeking $370 million in ill-gotten gains. The judge intends to issue a final judgment by the end of January.
