Former President Donald Trump’s Republican allies have appeared in growing numbers at his New York trial—a trend that “sheds more light on” the trial, according to Larry Snowden, leader of Club 47 USA, known as the largest group of Trump supporters in the United States.

Mr. Snowden, observing news reports from his home in Florida, told The Epoch Times that it’s important to add prominent voices to the former president’s criticisms of the records-falsification case. They denounce it as a political prosecution—an allegation that those involved strongly reject.
