A lawyer remembered as former special counsel Robert Mueller’s top lieutenant said Sunday that while Donald Trump may not have violated a gag order in his New York hush-money trial, he may still be held accountable for sharing a video online of a supporter’s pickup truck which displayed a hog-tied President Joe Biden on its tailgate.

MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann joined Katie Phang for a Sunday segment that began with a discussion of Trump’s online posts about his New York hush-money trial judge’s daughter. After taking the position that the gag order did not cover the judge and his family, Weissmann said the former president may have violated his bail conditions based on his post about the current president.
