"Mr. Kise -- can you control your client? This is not a political rally. This is a courtroom," Judge Engoron told Trump attorney Chris Kise following a politically charged answer from the former president. He added, "Maybe you should have a talk with him right now."
State attorney Kevin Wallace then restated his question, and Trump responded briefly. Within minutes, Engoron grew frustrated again.
"Stricken, stricken, stricken," the judge shouted from the bench.

"This is a situation where you have on the stand a candidate for president of the United States. Being here takes away from that effort," Kise said. "The court needs to hear what he has to say about these statements."
"No, I am not here to hear what he has to say," Engoron shot back.
When Alina Habba attempted to weigh in, Engoron raised his voice, telling her, "Sit down already! Sit down."

Earlier, in response to a question about the compilation of his financial records in 2021, Trump invoke his work in the White House to demonstrate that he was too preoccupied with the nation's business to engage in his own.
"I was so busy in the White House," Trump said. "My threshold was China, Russia and keeping our country safe."
"Just for the record," state attorney Kevin Wallace replied, "you weren't president in 2021?"
"No, I wasn't," Trump acknowledged.
Look at that body language. Disrespectful. They gave him plenty wrinkles. Oh my!

@nursefrombirth dear lord 😂
@nursefrombirth I like it but he needs more neck. 😉
@nursefrombirth rumpled shoulder pads. Ha!
@nursefrombirth he still looks better in the sketch than he does in real life. It doesn’t reflect his very dark soul!
@allin looks like he has horns 🤔
@nursefrombirth yes!! No surprise there!
Sounds like a kindergarten class, "control your client" "sit down" "you done" "no, no, no"
'We are not going to hear about the disclaimer clause,' says judge
Trump pulled out a piece of paper about a disclaimer and said it vindicates him, Engoron stepped in.
"No, no, no, we are not going to hear about the disclaimer clause," Engoron responded.
