day at his criminal trial where there was a contempt hearing held earlier in the morning,
and then David Pecker, the former head of AMI, which owned the National Enquirer,
testified throughout the day about his catch-and-kill scheme deal
directly made with Donald Trump to find bad stories on Donald Trump, buy them out,
and then not publish those stories to benefit Donald Trump's 2016 campaign.
Pecker couldn't have been more clear.
After all of that went down, Donald Trump left the courtroom.
And what did he do?
He went out into the hall after the proceedings concluded
with that stack of articles that his team prints for him.
Donald Trump has someone on his payroll.
Her name is Natalie Harp and her job is to print flattering headlines for Donald Trump
so he can read them during the trial.
And then he like redacts the parts of them that he doesn't like.
And then he goes out to the media and holds this picture book that they make for him.
Here, Donald Trump goes out to the media holding the picture book that his team made for him.
And he complains that he can't read the printouts of the articles that his team printed for
him after his disastrous day in
trial. Play the clip. And even having to do with articles, somebody writes an article.
If I read every one of these articles incomplete, I read some of it and I'll look at headlines,
all good headlines, and the case is a sham. But I can't read the whole thing. I'd be reading, this is like reading a novel.
So I put an article in and then somebody's name is mentioned somewhere deep in the article
and I end up in violation of a gag order.
I think it's a disgrace.
It's totally unconstitutional.
I don't believe it's never, not to this extent, ever happened before.
And then as part of that press conference, Donald Trump whines how he's in courtroom all day and he has to sit up and it's very difficult for him to sit up.
Here, play this clip.
But he's out campaigning. He's out campaigning and I'm here in the courtroom sitting here, sitting up as straight as I can all day long, because you know what? It's a very
unfair situation. So we're locked up in a courtroom, and this guy's out there campaigning.
If you call it a campaign, every time he opens his mouth, he gets himself into trouble.
Then Donald Trump whines that he has to sit there in court, and he's not allowed to talk about other
people, but he says people are allowed
to talk about him and he thinks that's very unfair. And so he wants to go out and whine about
it. Play this clip. And I don't even know if you're allowed to put a link. We have a gag on it,
which to me is totally unconstitutional. I'm not allowed to talk, but people are allowed to talk
about me so they can talk about me. They can say whatever they want, they can lie, but I'm not allowed
to say anything.
I just have to sit back and look at why a conflicted judge has ordered me to have a
gag order.
I don't think anybody's ever said anything like this.
I'd love to talk to you people.
I'd love to say everything that's on my mind, but I'm restricted because I have a gag order.
Then Donald Trump says that the gag order is totally unconstitution. He says, he says
the gag order is unconstitution and he can't even be allowed to put articles in. He wants
to put the articles in. Whatever that means, here, play this clip.
But you can believe he's going to talk a great deal about how he feels about all of this.
The gag writer is totally unconstitutional. Can't even allow articles to be put in. As an example,
these are articles that were over the last day and a half. They're very good articles. I tell
you, the case is a sham.
It shouldn't even be tried.
It shouldn't have been submitted.
And I don't even know if you're allowed to put a link.
We have a gag on it.
You know, and we've previously reported
and we shared with you some of the reporting,
this is from Futurism, it's called,
how Trump has an aide who follows him around
with a wireless printer
to print out good news
from the internet.
You'll recall last week when Donald Trump left the courtroom, he walked out with that
picture book as well that his team made for him, where he flipped through all of these
articles.
And he was like, you see, media, look, look at these articles.
I can't even find a bad one here.
Look at all of these articles.
Do you remember that? Play this clip. A trial't even find a bad one here. Look at all of these articles. Do you remember that?
Play this clip.
A trial that really is a very unfair trial.
These are all stories.
This is over the last few days from legal experts.
This is Wall Street Journal editorial.
But all of these are stories from legal experts saying how this is not a case.
The case is ridiculous. This is a case. The case is ridiculous.
This is another one of the cases,
a ridiculous Trump indictment.
It's missing fraud.
There is no fraud.
All of these stories are stories of how
ideas are condemned by the experts and editorials.
Greg falsified business record and he falsifies them.
He's the one.
He's the fraud.
Take a look at all of these are stories.
You see them here.
Yeah, Donald Trump pays Natalie Harp, that employee, about $8,500 a month.
I think she's made to date over $105,000 or so since 2022. When Donald Trump's not in the courtroom and he's golfing, she follows him around in a golf cart with the portable printer to hand him over articles from right-wing media that he finds
flattering. I mean, folks, how pathetic can you be that you have to hire someone who walks around
with a portable printer to print out flattering articles about you and hands them to you, and then
you still remove portions that you think aren't good enough for you. But that's what Donald Trump's
doing. Did you know that traditional bedshe sheets can harbor more bacteria than a toilet seat?

You know, and again, as I mentioned earlier in this video, a horrible day for Donald Trump
in the courtroom at that contempt hearing. Justice Mershon looked at Donald Trump's lawyer,
Todd Blanche, and said, you are absolutely losing all credibility with me as Trump's lawyer tried to argue that
Donald Trump's doing his best to try to follow the gag order. He's really working hard to follow
the gag order. And Justice Merchant's like, don't do that here. We know that that's not what's
happening. Also, Todd Blanch tried to say, look, when Donald Trump reposts some of these articles,
when he reposts and reprints the articles or interposes the articles on his social media.
He's not saying it.
That can't be a gag order violation.
To which Justice Mershon said, do you have any case law, any cases that say that if you threaten or intimidate a witness or a family member of this court or the district attorney by using other people's articles
that you're immune from any repercussions, to which Todd Blanch said, I don't have any case law
about that, to which Justice Merchant said, and let me point this out as well, Donald Trump didn't
just repost other people's articles. Donald Trump took statements and manipulated the statements. Like Donald Trump
attributed quotes that people actually didn't say to attack the jury or to threaten and harass
witnesses. Trump made his own quotes. He changed the words of the people. And you may know from
watching the Midas Touch Network that we had covered how Donald Trump would take these articles
and he would manipulate
the articles and then he would repost them with stuff that was redacted that he didn't like from
the articles. And he's been doing this consistently. So what we figured out here at the Midas Touch
network, putting this all together, is that Trump employs this Natalie Harp, who he pays
significant amounts of money to follow him with the portable printer, that
he sits there in court or wherever he is with his Sharpie.
She already hands him the flattering articles.
He then takes the flattering articles.
And if there's any references to anything in the flattering article from right-wing
media that he doesn't like, he takes a Sharpie.
He removes those portions from the article that he doesn't like.
He hands them back to Natalie Harp or he shows them to the media
or he posts it on his social media or has someone post it for him
that are manipulated articles.
And he's done this like 25 times in March.
He's done it numerous times already in April.
You know, we're seeing that play out and he goes out there with that picture book
whining and complaining. And the bottom line is it's just so odd. It's so disturbing. It's so
whiny. It's so petulant. It's so petty. I mean, this malignant narcissism is through the roof
right here. And we're finally had to see though today, Donald Trump have to watch his buddy, David Pecker say, yeah, look,
we entered into a deal. The deal was to interfere with the 2016 election. I was finding bad stories
on him and then I would pay them off. That didn't benefit me. It was to benefit his 2016 campaign.
That's why I did it. I mean, it was devastating, devastating for Donald Trump, but he's got his
picture book, folks. He's got his picture book, folks.
He's got his picture book.
