Navarro, Trump’s one-time trade adviser, testified Monday in his defense during a key pre-trial hearing in his case.
But during the nearly three-hour hearing before US District Judge Amit P. Mehta in Washington, DC, the judge appeared highly skeptical of Navarro’s testimony, noting it’s from one side of the conversation.
“I don’t think anyone would disagree that we wish there was more here from President Trump,” Woodward told Mehta.
The judge said he would make a decision later this week on whether Navarro’s testimony could be used in his trial next month.
“We would like, at the very least, to leave the record open” so Harrington can submit her testimony, Woodward told Mehta.
