Porn Star/Presidential Trial Begins Today.
“NEW YORK — Donald Trump’s first criminal trial, scheduled to begin Monday, is set to feature a familiar cast of characters on the witness stand.
That’s because the felony charges against the former president center on a well-trodden sequence of salacious events: Trump’s affair with porn star Stormy Daniels; hush money payments to prevent Daniels from going public on the eve of the 2016 election; and the alleged scheme to falsify records tied to those payments.”
A ‘new normal’ appears to be settling in across the political landscape. The idea of a presidential trial would be a completely foreign concept to the public and the political class in Washington DC alike just a few short years ago. Now the calendar is chalked full of presidential trials that are taking place in an election year in a highly charged partisan atmosphere. The notion of a former president prosecuted for numerous crimes is novel but seemingly fitting for the complete chaos that former President Trump invites into every aspect of his life.
