Jonathan Allen is a senior national politics reporter for NBC News, based in Washington.
No one will ever accuse former President Donald Trump of being woke. But over a few hours Monday, he transformed from a disinterested observer at his own hush-money trial — eyes shut at times — to a highly attentive defendant-in-chief. Maybe it was the chance to stare the full jury in the eyes, which he did when they sat in their box — against the wall to his right — and when they entered and exited the courtroom.
” As his own lawyer spoke, it was unclear at times from the closed-circuit telecast inside the courtroom when Trump looked at jurors and when he looked at Blanche. The head-on frame of Trump didn't include the jury box. But viewed from behind, the shifting angle of his profile showed that he split time between focusing on the jury and on Blanche.
