Slight chuckle

District attorney gives a slight chuckle when Trump mentions him

Madeline Halpert

As Trump speaks, repeating many of the same arguments we’ve heard before, District Attorney Alvin Bragg is watching his face on the screen quietly from the second row of the courtroom.

Bragg chuckles ever so slightly when Trump claims that the district attorney did not even want to bring the case against him.

During the trial, Trump often spoke outside the courtroom and criticised Bragg for charging him with falsifying business records.

But this is the first chance he's had to say it directly to Bragg's face, even if it's via a video link.

Bragg has remained expressionless for much of Trump’s speech, his hands folded in front of him.
