YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Former President Donald Trump’s first criminal trial will bring to a Manhattan courtroom a colorful cast of characters, from a porn star to a doorman and a former tabloid-publishing chief executive officer.

Trump, a brash former reality TV star who used fame to propel himself to the presidency, will be the star of the trial. He’s accused of scheming to bolster his 2016 election prospects by paying “hush money” to women who claimed to have had affairs with him, and then falsifying business records to cover his tracks. It’s one of four criminal trials the former president faces.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who brought the case a year ago, is expected to call to the witness stand almost everyone involved in the alleged hush-money deals. Opening arguments are set to begin as soon as Monday, and is expected to last as long as two weeks.
