A judge in New York has imposed a limited gag order on former President Donald Trump during his civil business fraud trial. The gag order was issued after Trump made a post attacking a court clerk on social media. Trump deleted the post after a closed-door session. The judge, Arthur Engoron, stated that personal attacks on court staff are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. The order prohibits Trump from speaking about Judge Engoron or his staff, and failure to comply will result in serious sanctions. Experts suggest that this gag order could set a precedent for other judges to follow.
