'Recused': Trump melts down over report judge's daughter's clients cashed in on trial

Former President Donald Trump had an online meltdown after a report that clients of the daughter of his hush money trial judge brought in millions by using the case as a fundraising tool.

The New York Post reported Saturday that two Democrats who are clients of Loren Merchan’s Authentic Campaigns political consulting firm brought in $93 million in campaign donations after detailing the criminal case in solicitation emails.

The report said Trump’s legal team is now considering demanding Judge Juan Merchan recuse himself from the trial, slated to begin on April 15.

“This is a disgrace to our Legal System,” an outraged Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Judge Merchan should be immediately sanctioned and recused, and this fake “case,” only kept alive by the Highly Conflicted Judge, should be completely dismissed right away - THERE IS NO CASE, THERE IS NO CRIME.

“Andy McCarthy, Jonathan Turley, and all Legal Experts and Scholars universally agree that this is a case that should have never been brought. IT IS A POLITICAL, ELECTION-INTERFERING WITCH HUNT, JUST LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER HOAXES, HEADED UP AND COORDINATED BY THE DOJ, AGAINST THE POLITICAL OPPONENT OF CROOKED JOE BIDEN IN ORDER TO HELP GET THE WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES RE-ELECTED.”

The Post’s report claimed Loren Merchan's clients, Rep. Adam Schiff (C-D) and the Senate Majority PAC highlighted the trial in emails.

Schiff’s fundraising message stated, “It is a somber moment, and unprecedented for a former president to be indicted, but his alleged offenses are also unprecedented.”

“Trump will respond as he always does — playing the victim and blaming others for having the temerity to investigate him in the first place.”

The PAC wrote: “BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump indicted by Manhattan grand jury. This is an important moment for our democracy, but our work isn’t over.”

The Post reported the messages brought in more than $93 million in donations.

Loren Merchan is the president of Authentic Campaigns and Trump has publicly railed against her in claims that the trial — which involves payments allegedly made to an adult movie actress to hide an affair she had with Trump — is biased against him.

Trump has been hit with a gag order forbidding him from making public comments about witnesses and jurors in the trial, but it doesn’t cover the judge or his family members.

Trump spokesman Steven Cheung told the Post, “Authentic Campaigns, and thus the judge’s daughter, is actively making money from this sham attack against President Trump, rendering Judge Merchan conflicted out."
