Last night on social media site, #Trump criticized the length of prosecutors’ closing argument, which lasted ~5hrs, describing it as a “filibuster,” even though there is no such thing in court. He also complained that he did not get a chance to respond to it, which is not how #ClosingArguments work & prosecution is always last in #NY court.

This morning, he again went after Justice #Merchan, who he falsely claims is biased against him.

The #MSNBC Team last night discussed the #ClosingArguments in T****'s #CampaignFinanceFraud (aka #HushMoney) trial that closed yesterday.

"The defense never even *tried* to explain away #Weiselberg's handwritten notes on the breakdown & reasons for the #Cohen reimbursement."

Pictured is a sampling of #Trump’s post #ClosingArguments mania.

3 Trump social media posts spewing inanity

#Steinglass says that soon it will be time to deliberate and that the jurors should return & find #Trump guilty on all 34 counts against him. He asks that, in the interest of #justice & the state of #NewYork, the jurors find Trump guilty. He thanks the jurors for their time & he’s done.

#ClosingArguments have ended in the first #criminal trial of an American president.

Tomorrow, the jury will receive instructions on the #law from the judge, & then begin their deliberations.

#TrumpTrial

#Steinglass puts his own spin on one of the defense’s #ClosingArguments, that the existence at the #TrumpOrganization of financial documents related to the charged #crimes shows that they were not crimes.

“You almost have to laugh at the way Mr. #Blanche explained it to you,” he says. “They would have destroyed evidence — committed another crime — to hide this crime, but because they didn’t do that, & these documents exist” that’s evidence that there was no crime.

Blanche says he is going to talk a lot about #MichaelCohen today. “You cannot convict *President* #Trump on any #crime beyond a reasonable doubt on the words of Michael Cohen,” Blanche says, adding that Cohen took the stand during the trial & told “lies” while there.

#ClosingArguments have many visual components. #Blanche is currently breaking down #evidence that is being displayed on screens.

After 5 wks of testimony, prosecutors & defense attys now present #ClosingArguments aka summations. Closing arguments give each side several hrs to highlight the #evidence that best proves its case. While similar to the opening statements delivered at a trial’s start, closing arguments tend to be more forceful.

When both sides are finished, Judge Juan #Merchan, will instruct the jurors on the #law & how to apply it to the evidence, & they will be sent off to deliberate.

After brashly declaring he wanted to #testify in his #criminal trial, it appears increasingly unlikely that #Trump will do so, as the #jury seems poised to hear #ClosingArguments next week.
 Defendants rarely testify, because their #lawyers advise them that the risks of doing so, particularly when it comes to being questioned by prosecutors #UnderOath, are simply too great.
