Donald Trump lambasted the judge in his historic hush money trial for potentially refusing him permission to attend his son Barron’s high school graduation next month.
The former president also castigated the judge for stopping him going to the U.S. Supreme Court next week for a hearing related to January 6.

Barron, 18, graduates from high school on May 17 and the trial is set to still be going on by then.
A furious Trump said: ‘It looks like the judge will not let me go to the graduation of my son who’s worked very, very hard.
‘He’s a great student and he’s very proud of the fact he did so well and was looking forward for years to having his graduation with his mother and father there, and it looks like the judge isn’t gong to allow me to escape this scam, it’ a scam trial.’
