Donald Trump deleted the post less than one day after Judge Juan Merchan threatened the former president with jail time for repeatedly violating his gag order.

Donald Trump deleted a social media post that fumed about how prosecutors in his criminal hush money trial are withholding their schedule of planned witnesses.

"I have just recently been told who the witness is today. This is unprecedented, no time for lawyers to prepare," Trump wrote in the post. Steinglass blamed Trump for forcing the move, pointing out that he "has been violating the order restricting extrajudicial speech, and we did not want to have the witnesses' names, the next witnesses' names out there."
