During the ongoing trial, Trump attorney Todd Blanche has been meticulously dissecting the testimony of former White House aide Madeleine Westerhout. Westerhout's account to the jurors portrayed Trump as a busy individual who would occasionally glance at the checks she presented, but not always, as highlighted by Blanche.
Blanche emphasized to the jury that the mere act of Trump looking at invoices, without any specific details provided, should not be grounds for convicting the former President. He argued that assuming Trump had full knowledge of the contents of the invoices based solely on his glance is a significant stretch and raises reasonable doubt.
