Former President Donald Trump again attended his defamation trial on Wednesday, making several lengthy posts on Truth Social to blast the judge and case and explain his upcoming absence while he attends his mother-in-law’s funeral.

After the court adjourned, he held a press conference at the Trump Building in New York to give an update about the case and criticize the judge for not delaying trial on Thursday.
