"Trump's Ongoing Battle with Gag Orders and Judge Recusal in Hush Money Case"

Donald Trump filed a motion demanding Judge Juan Merchan recuse himself from the New York hush money case due to his daughter's work with a company that does political marketing for Democratic campaigns, despite a gag order against him. The motion tests the boundaries of the gag order, as it includes public criticism of the judge's daughter. Prosecutors have already stated that the political activities of a relative are not a basis to question a judge's impartiality. The trial is set to start on April 15, but could be delayed if the judge agrees to Trump's request to recuse himself.

While some campaigns may be wary of having an account on the app, tapping influencers to share the campaign’s message could be effective. Republicans who choose not to engage with TikTok out of principle risk missing out on shaping narratives and reaching younger voters. Campaigns are reevaluating their balance of spending on platforms as they enter the 2024 cycle, but so far there’s not a massive move away from TikTok.
