Colorado Representative Lauren Boebert and Florida Representative Matt Gaetz have become the latest Donald Trump loyalists to show up for the former president at his New York criminal trial.
Thursday morning, Ms Boebert and Mr Gaetz, two far-right MAGA-aligned politicians, rolled up to Manhattan criminal court to stand in solidarity with Mr Trump who is facing 16 counts of falsifying business records.
Their appearance comes after a busy week of potential Trump vice presidential picks and other Trump allies making appearances. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy and more have joined Mr Trump at cour this week.
Inside the courtroom, the two members of Congress sat in the first row behind the defense table. Mr Gaetz sat next to Mr Trump’s son, Eric Trump.
