What Just Happened?
Donald Trump isn’t getting a jury trial in his $250 million civil fraud suit brought against him by New York Attorney General Letitia James because his legal team didn’t request one, The Guardian reports.
Harry Litman: “I had heard this rumor, and now the judge just confirmed it. It is mind-blowing. For Trump to have his fate in the hands of this judge, whom he has vilified, is malpractice by his lawyers and very ominous for him.”
