Trump's lawyers' aimless attacks are hurting their client's defense: legal experts

The political histrionics are falling flat.

Some legal experts are throwing popcorn at the performance inside and outside of the Lower Manhattan courtroom by former President Donald Trump's esquires, causing some to wonder if they are out of their depth.

"Spoken like a lawyer who: (1) doesn’t try cases and (2) doesn’t know how to act in front of a judge," MSNBC legal analyst Katie Phang on Twitter/X, and first reported by Salon.

"What a terrible look for this lawyer," Georgia State University Law professor Eric Segall tweeted.

Attorney and legal analyst Bradley Moss curtly posted: "Get over it."

Trump's attorney Alina Habba, who also serves as general counsel to and legal spokeswoman for pro-Trump Save America, was admonished by New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron on Monday after she apparently couldn't keep her client, Donald Trump, from filibustering on the stand.

As a witness, Trump appeared to mostly bluster between answering some questions asked by New York Attorney General Letitia James' prosecution on Monday.
