Trump's sons raised concerns about a report that Judge Juan Merchan's daughter worked on Vice President Kamala Harris' 2020 campaign.
's family raged over New York Judge Juan Merchan's daughter's work history ahead of his arraignment on Tuesday., where he pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records and conspiracy related to hush money payments to two women before the 2016 presidential election. Trump made history as the first former U.S. president to be charged in a criminal investigation.
Trump and his allies have attacked last week's grand injury indictment, accusing prosecutors of engaging in a politically motivated"witch hunt" aimed at weakening his standing as he sees the GOP presidential nomination. Trump's conservative allies also sought to portray Merchan as politically biased even before the arraignment.
In a post on his Truth Social platform just hours before his arraignment, Trump mentioned Loren Merchan's political connections and called for the trial to be moved out of Manhattan—a deeply Democratic-leaning jurisdiction—to the more conservative Staten Island.
