Andrea Report From Hush Money Courthouse Nearly Drowned Out for Minutes By Shouting Trump Protesters

MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell was inside the courtroom on Tuesday for Donald Trump’s hush money trial in Manhattan, but a good portion her initial report was almost completely drowned out by protesters shouting at Donald Trump Jr. and others criticizing the trial outside the courthouse.

As Mitchell was running through the large entourage of Trump allies that attended his trial on Tuesday — including Sebastian Gorka and comedian Joe Piscopo — protesters could heard yelling in the background, at points a mixture of pro-Trump and anti-Trump chants.

The anti-Trump chants came as Trump Jr. and others were speaking to the press. His father is charged with more than 30 felony counts for falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments to hide an affair. Trump has denied knowledge of any hush money payments and that the affair ever happened.
