Prosecutors will try to convict the former president without referring to an admission made by his former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.
Just weeks before the start of the historic criminal trial of Donald Trump, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg made a surprisingto set aside a potentially potent piece of evidence:
How Bragg addresses the issue must balance two competing concerns: for supporters of his prosecution, the need for accountability in what may become the only criminal case against Trump to go to trial before the 2024 presidential election—and for skeptics, the need for such historic proceedings to conform to evidentiary standards of due process to ensure that 34 felony convictions against a former president can stand up on appeal.
Giuliani’s performance instantly became a late-night punchline, with comedian Stephen Colbert comparing it to a lawyer talking his client out of a speeding ticket by telling the officer he was “too drunk.”Almost immediately after the Hannity interview, Trump and his associates quickly disavowed Giuliani’s remarks.
Indeed, Trump’s attorneys fought the admission of “nearly 100 statements” attributed to the former president, including excerpts from his books likereporter Ainsley Earhardt about the reimbursements: “They came from me, and I tweeted about it,” a comment that fell months after Giuliani’s interview—and which represents, in many ways, a more explicit concession than any comment his former lawyer made.
