Trump's attacks on a judge and his family during a speech at Mar-a-Lago were largely driven by his frustration over being indicted on felony charges, according to CNN contributor Maggie Haberman.
Haberman revealed that Trump became increasingly agitated as he realized the gravity of the situation. His anger was directed not only towards the judge who signed the indictment but also towards his family members who she believes may have played a role in the case against him.
Haberman claims that Trump's speech was meant to rally his base and convince them that the charges against him are unfair and that he will be exonerated. She pointed out that this is not an unusual tactic for Trump, who often uses divisive rhetoric to polarize his supporters.
However, some have criticized Trump's behavior as "unbecoming" of a president, particularly when it comes to attacks on the judiciary. Haberman also noted that Trump's actions may be seen as attempts to undermine the integrity of the judicial system and the rule of law.
As for the specific charges against him, Haberman stated that they include allegations of tax evasion, money laundering, and obstruction of justice. The case has garnered significant attention, with many in the media and politics world labeling it a "watershed" moment in Trump's history.
Overall, Haberman's analysis suggests that Trump's actions were driven by his deepening desperation to avoid accountability for his alleged wrongdoing.

. It's clear that the frustration over being indicted is boiling over into a full-blown tantrum 
. The fact that he took aim at a judge and his family suggests a deeper sense of desperation, rather than just a clever attempt to rally his base. I mean, it's not like this is the first time Trump has used divisive rhetoric to polarize his supporters, but still... 
. And yet, despite all this, Trump is still trying to convince people that he'll be exonerated? Come on, dude... 
.
... he's just throwing shade at the judiciary and expecting us to be all like 'oh okay mr president' Newsflash: as a country we value independence & impartiality in our courts, not some angry rant from the Oval Office 
. And can we please talk about how his family got dragged into this? It's getting out of hand... or should I say, it was already out of hand 
. Anyway, I just hope he gets held accountable for what might've happened and that justice is served 
this is just another tactic of his to get ppl all riled up and distracted from the real issues. newsflash trump: attacks on judges and family members are NOT gonna help your case it's just gonna make u look like a madman 
and by the way, tax evasion and money laundering? how original 
... I mean, attacking a judge and his family? That's just not okay 
... I guess it's no surprise that he'd try to rally his base with some good old fashioned divisive rhetoric 
... But honestly, can't he just accept responsibility for whatever mistakes he's made? It seems like he's more concerned with playing the victim here 
...
. This whole thing is like a soap opera – you can't look away, but you also kinda wanna roll your eyes 
. Anyway, it's all about accountability now, and if Trump thinks the base is gonna rally behind him, he's sadly mistaken 
.
, but at the same time, coming out swinging at a judge and his family? that's just not cool 
. And can we talk about how this kind of behavior reflects poorly on Trump as a person and a leader
