Former President Donald Trump spoke again in the hallway during a lunch recess, calling the proceedings a “disgraceful trial.”

The former president is facing a judge inside a lower Manhattan courthouse Monday, for the opening of a $250 million civil trial over charges he overinflated the values of his many properties.
