But lawyers familiar with Trump's rhetoric said they expect the former president to wade into commentary, and personal attacks, on people involved in bringing him to justice across four separate criminal indictments in four different jurisdictions.

Uhhh ... he already has - Jack Smith, Tanya Chutkan, Fani Willis - you don't have to "expect" it.

Trump talks big in front of cameras and microphones but is a giant wuss behind a defendants table.
