NEW: Chaos breaks out between former President Trump and left-wing judge Arthur Engoron as they traded shots in the court room while Trump was testifying in Letitia James' politically charged lawsuit against him.

Engoron was frustrated that Trump was giving long answers when being questioned by lawyer Kevin Wallace.

"Please just answer the questions, no speeches," Engoron whined.

When asked about his involvement with financial statements, Trump said: "It was so long ago, but well beyond the statute of limitations for anyone else, but not me because I’m sure the judge will rule against me."

Engoron shot back asking if this quote was "necessary part of the narrative?"

"You can attack me as much as you want, but please answer the question," Engoron said.

On the values of his properties, Trump said: "Values are far bigger than what’s on the statements… I thought 40 Wall St… Doral was underestimated, considerably more valuable."

Trump then blasted Engoron for the low value he placed on his Mar-A-Lago property: "$18 million, but it is worth 50 to 100 times more than that."

"But the judge ruled against me. I don’t know how he got to those numbers."

"The most valuable asset was the brand asset, but I didn’t put it on the statement…If I wanted to build up a statement, like you said, I would have added the brand value here."

Engoron then asked Trump's lawyer: "Can you control your client? This is not a political rally: this is a courtroom."

Chaos then ensued between Trump, his lawyer and the judge.

"They should try to ask better questions," Trump's lawyer said in regards to Wallace's questions.

"I’m not here to hear what he has to say… he goes into speeches," Engoron said.

Trump's lawyer shot back, telling Engoron to listen to what Trump had to say.

"This is a very, very unfair trial, and I hope the public is watching," Trump replied.
