Donald Trump trial LIVE: What to expect as opening statements begin
Donald Trump’s historic hush money trial in Manhattan kicks off on Monday with opening statements and could end with testimony from the first witness.
Prosecutors will lay out whether the 77-year-old hid a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels to cover up their alleged affair in a bid to help him win the 2016 election.
Then Trump’s legal team will tell the jury how they will defend the first former president in history to stand criminal trial.
Over the weekend it was reported that former publisher of the National Enquirer David Pecker will be the prosecution’s first witness.
He is set to testify about the magazine’s scheme to bury negative stories about Trump and publish stories criticizing his opponents.
