WATCH: Liberal BBC Host Gets Schooled By Lawyer Mike Davis On Trump Trial

Mike Davis, rumored as a potential Attorney General in a future Trump administration, slammed the ongoing trial against former President Donald Trump during BBC’s “Newsnight” interview. Davis described the trial as a politically motivated attempt to undermine Trump ahead of the 2024 presidential election, amid heated discussions over its conduct and implications.

BBC’s Kristy Wark hosted the contentious interview, where Davis labeled the proceedings as “garbage” aimed at “humiliating President Trump.” Trump is facing 34 counts of falsifying business records related to payments made to silence adult film actress Stormy Daniels about an alleged extramarital affair.

During the interview, Davis criticized the presence of Daniels in the media, whom he disparagingly referred to as a “bimbo porn star.” His aggressive rhetoric escalated as he defended Trump’s right to free speech under the Constitution, arguing that the gag order was an unconstitutional muzzle imposed by Judge Juan Merchan, whose impartiality Davis questioned due to familial connections allegedly benefiting from the trial’s publicity.

“In the United States of America, we have something called the Constitution, and we have the First Amendment, the Sixth Amendment, and the Fourteenth Amendment. If there’s anyone on the planet who should have the constitutional right to speak out against the judge, the prosecutor, their staffs, the witnesses, their biases, the process, it is a criminal defendant going through the criminal process. You don’t gag criminal defendants in America,” Davis explained.

“I don’t know what you guys do in the United Kingdom, but in America, we have constitutional rights, and they’ve turned the Constitution on its head by gagging a criminal defendant, while this judge, whose adult daughter, Lauren Merchan is raising millions of dollars off of this case.” He continued to claim that the trial was a “kangaroo court” and an instance of “Democrat lawfare and election interference.”

Friday’s proceedings began with Madeleine Westerhout, Trump’s former White House personal secretary, who returned to the stand to provide further insights into the ex-president’s work habits. The day also shed light on the emotional impact of public controversies on Trump, with Westerhout recalling his distress following the publication of a piece about his alleged involvement with Stormy Daniels, noting how it potentially hurt his family.

As the day wrapped up, the spotlight briefly shifted to Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney, who is expected to play a central role in next week’s proceedings. Judge Juan Merchan instructed Cohen to limit his public commentary on the ongoing case, signaling the sensitivity of his forthcoming testimony. Amidst the legal volley, Trump remained defiant, declaring his readiness to face incarceration for what he considers a defense of the Constitution, aiming sharp criticism at the prosecution team.

“If anything’s mentioned against certain people, and you know who they are, certain people, anything’s even mentioned, he wants to put me in jail,” Trump said on Friday as he showcased media articles related to the trial. “That could happen one day and I’d be very proud to go to jail for our Constitution.”

With the DA’s office hinting at concluding its case soon, the anticipation for next week’s testimonies and the potential resting of the case looms large over Trump’s legal saga.
