AUSTIN, Texas—Attorneys for “Trump Train” supporters being sued in civil court denied accusations that their clients harassed or threatened those aboard the Biden–Harris campaign bus driving on a Texas highway in 2020.

Opening statements in the U.S. Western District courtroom on Sept. 9 detailed allegations that the Trump Train defendants planned “dangerous and illegal” actions to run the campaign bus out of town.
