OPINION - Donald Trump is too scared to speak in his own defence, but that's not slowing him down
Donald Trump has complained nonstop for weeks about being gagged. The hush money trial, involving an alleged pay-off to porn star Stormy Daniels, has been monstrously unfair, he wailed repeatedly outside court. According to his own version of events, his prosecution was a horrible witch hunt, built on lies, because America’s self-described “favourite” president never slept with Daniels in the first place, let alone tried to subvert the course of the 2016 election by paying $130,000 for her silence.
