EXCERPT:
JOHNSON: "President Trump is is a friend and I wanted to be here to support him. I’m here speaking with you outside because the court won’t allow us to speak inside the building. That’s just one of the many things that are wrong here. This is the fifth week that President Trump has been in court for this sham of a trial. They are doing this intentionally to keep him here and keep him off of the campaign trail. I think everybody in the country can see that for what it is. I’m an attorney, I’m a former litigator myself. I am disgusted by what is happening here, what is being done here to our entire system of justice overall, The people are losing faith right now, in this country, in our institutions. They are losing faith in our system of justice. And the reason for that is because they see it being abused, as it is being done here in New York.“
