In the ongoing legal proceedings, the defense has raised a point regarding an instruction they wish to provide to the jury concerning how they should interpret testimony related to reactions from external sources, such as the 'Access Hollywood' tape incident.
The defense, represented by Trump attorney Emil Bove, has emphasized the need for a curative instruction. Bove argues that evidence of reactions from others should not be considered for its factual content but rather for its potential impact on Trump's state of mind. He expressed concern that this distinction might not be clear to the jury without proper guidance.
