Reid: “I want to let you real quick listen just to a non-exhaustive sort of roundtable of Donald Trump attacking judges, prosecutors, and their families. Take a listen.”

[Clip starts]

Trump: “I have been treated very unfairly by this judge. Now, this judge is of Mexican heritage. I’m building a wall, ok? I’m building a wall.

The Trump-hating prosecutor in the case, his wife, and family despise me much more than he does. And he decides, I think he’s about a 10. They’re about a 15 on a scale of 10.

Then you have deranged Jack Smith, who’s a Trump hater and represents all the Trump haters.

You have a radical left attorney general like Letitia James, who’s a disgrace to our country.

The judges on these cases, they’re all Trump haters.”

Reid: “Michael, what’s his goal when he does that?”

COHEN: “His goal is to fuel up his supporters. As you stated in your opening, to fuel up his haters for the sole purpose of getting them to act no differently and as stupidly as they did on January 6th. His goal is to get them to attack these individuals, these critics of him as often and as frequently as they possibly can, whether it’s going to be on social media, whether it’ll be through phone calls, whether it will be in person. I mean, that’s his goal. Intimidation and witness — it’s witness intimidation and it’s harassment.”
