Trump’s Lawyer Digs into Complaints About Clerk, Threatens to Move for Mistrial, Morning After Judge’s Warning
The Trump attorney, Christopher Kise, also signaled that he may move for a mistrial based on allegations about the clerk that appeared in Breitbart, a website once run by the former president's ex-strategist Steve Bannon, its ex-executive chairman. Trump's circle has been circulating the article, which alleges the clerk had broken rules for political donations -- all to Democratic causes.
If the allegations are substantiated, Kise said: "I think the defense will have to make serious consideration to seeking a mistrial.
The Breitbart article accused Greenfield of making excessive campaign contributions, attributing the claims to a Twitter user from Wisconsin who had filed a bar complaint.
When Kise disclosed the genesis of the claims to the pro-Trump website, audible groans filled the courtroom.
