Former President and 2024 GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump spoke to the press outside the Manhattan courtroom on Monday and confirmed Judge Merchan denied his request to attend son Barron’s high school graduation.
“We had some amazing things happen today. As you know, my son is graduating high school and it looks like the judge will not let me go to the graduation of my son who has worked very, very hard…he’s a great student,” Trump told the press.
Trump said the judge wouldn’t let him escape this “scam trial.”
