A new report showed that Donald Trump and his lawyers already know they lost the New York fraud trial and are just trying to win the case in the court of public opinion instead. To do this, his attorneys have employed a strategy that Trump insiders are calling the "Fyre Festival Strategy."

Two people who have been briefed on internal deliberations spoke with Rolling Stone Magazine and said that Trump and his attorneys know that they have absolutely no chance of winning the case based on the merits, so Trump and his legal team would just have to go down with a bang by causing as much "chaos and cacophony" as they can, scoring political points from his supporters who would not care about the strong evidence that he is lying.

One of the sources noted that it was called the "Fyre Festival Strategy," as this mirrored what the organizers of the infamous event did after getting sued, which was to cause as much chaos and confusion as possible because they already knew they lost the case.

While the strategy is seen to appeal more to his most fanatical base, experts believe it might undermine his long-term legal defense and also hurt his chances with more independent or moderate voters.

So far, Trump attorneys have been causing delaying and disruption tactics by constantly bringing up arguments that Judge Arthur Engoron had already barred because they lacked merit. In fact, this tactic has already cost Trump's attorneys $7,500 each in fines.

The Rolling Stone report noted that Trump attorneys have been instructed to "ignore such concerns" and proceed with deeply personal and "below the belt" attacks on witnesses, prosecutors, and the judge himself.

Jack Smith Wants Witnesses and Jurors Protected From Donald Trump's Intimidation Tactics

Trump has been using his platform to attack the people prosecuting him, the witnesses who testify against him, and the judges overseeing his cases. The former president has been riling up supporters with his posts, with prosecutors, witnesses, and judges being subjected to death threats. However, Jack Smith wants this to stop.

Smith filed on Tuesday that "in light of the public attention that is expected [at the trial], and the defendant's record of using public social media platforms in an intimidating manner," standard practices must be imposed to protect jury members from intimidation. He added that "additional clear guidelines for use of information regarding potential jurors" must also be imposed.

Measures to protect jurors include the use of a preliminary questionnaire to aid in expediting the jury selection process, as well as prohibiting any research on potential jurors "beyond what is publicly available."

Smith also asked that there should be a restriction from "asking to 'follow' or 'friend' anyone, or make any analogous affirmative request, to gain access to posts or profiles that are not otherwise publicly available." Rules preventing "the public distribution of jurors names or identifying information" should also be implemented.

Former Bank Official Says Donald Trump Lying About His Properties Landed Him Big Loans

Former Deutsche Bank risk management officer Nicholas Haigh testified that the former president obtained hundreds of millions of dollars in loans by using his fraudulent financial statements. He added that the former POTUS's statements of financial condition were key to getting his 2011 loan worth $125 million approved, as well as a $107 million loan in 2012.

He added that Trump was able to secure much larger loans with lower interest rates thanks to his lying about his finances. Deutsche Bank required Trump to act as the guarantor in those two loans, with the ex-POTUS placing his Miami-area resort and Wabash Ave skyscraper as collateral. As it turned out, the bank fell for the fake numbers as Haigh testified that they had no reason to doubt the validity of Trump's financial statements.
