Prosecutors have raised concerns about the former president violating a gag order imposed by Judge Merchan.

Former President Donald Trump may have found a 'loophole' in the gag order imposed by Judge Juan Merchan in the Stormy Daniels hush money trial, warned former federal prosecutor Shanlon Wu.Wu told Newsweek he believes the gag order should require Trump to not speak about jurors at all, only allowing him to say he is innocent and will defend himself in court.

'I think there is a loophole in Judge Merchan's order that Trump is using by posting/reposting a comment someone else made. Judge Merchan should close that loophole by making the gag order more of a Will Smith style 'keep my jurors out of your mouth,'' he wrote.He referred to a post made by the former president on Truth Social, in which he shared a quote from Fox News' Jesse Watters.
