Donald Trump‘s loud utterances and mutterings inside of a courtroom in New York where writer E. Jean Carroll‘s second defamation trial against him is now unfolding prompted a stern warning from the presiding judge Wednesday.

“Mr. Trump has the right to be present here. That right can be forfeited and it can be forfeited if he is disruptive… and if he disregards court orders,” U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan pronounced, according to a report from inside the courtroom by Reuters.

Kaplan continued: “Mr. Trump, I hope I don’t have to consider excluding you from the trial. I understand you are probably very eager for me to do that.”

“I would love it,” Trump replied, according to Politico. “I would love it.”

Kaplan shot back: “I know you would. I know you would. You can’t control yourself in this circumstance, apparently.”

Evoking schoolyard retorts, Trump then reportedly told the judge he couldn’t control himself either, the outlet reported.

Trump is not obligated to appear for proceedings and he could waive that right at any time. Notably, he was absent during opening statements on Wednesday.
