According to MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Rubin, Donald Trump did himself no favors by making a big show out of abruptly fleeing a Manhattan courtroom on Wednesday after Judge Arthur Engoron fined him $10,000 for ignoring his gag order on attacking court officials.
Appearing on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" with co-hosts Mika Brezenski and Willie Geist, Rubin got right to the point and bluntly stated Trump "stormed out like a baby."
According to the former litigator, Trump was likely additionally frustrated because his attorney Alina Habba didn't score any points during her cross-examination of former Trump Lawyer Michael Cohen.
"I think the first day, she had a great day, the second day was tougher for her," Rubin suggested. "We should have been talking about Michael Cohen. Instead, the person's credibility on the line at the end of the day was Donald Trump himself. He didn't have to flaunt the order and nonetheless, he did both."
Later discussing Cohen's credibility, she explained, "I want to be clear, Michael Cohen's lie is a serious one -- to lie under oath to a federal judge during a plea hearing is not inconsequential. On the other hand, to get up in front of a court now and admit that, you don't do that unless you are really serious about what you're about to say, as well."
"It took a lot of bravery, particularly in this political environment, as Donald Trump is making his enemies list, as his campaign continues, to come into open court and admit to that in court," she concluded.
