Make America Great Again figures have hit out at Donald Trump potentially missing his son Barron's graduation because of a clash with the former president's hush-money trial.Trump allies have reacted with anger following a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, by Inner City Press, saying that the judge in the case, Juan Merchan, is yet to decide whether Trump can miss the hush money trial on May 17 so the former president can attend his son's ceremony.
Merchan said whether Trump can attend it or not depends on whether the trial runs on schedule, Inner City Press said. Jury selection in the trial is expected to last up to two weeks.While a decision has not yet been made, writing on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump said he had been 'prohibited from attending' the graduation.After the first day of the trial, he also told press Barron had 'worked very very hard' and was 'a great student.
