Will Trump Go to Prison? How He Could Be Sentenced in New York Trial

The opening week of Donald Trump’s historic hush money trial offered plenty of insights into how his 2016 presidential campaign teamed up with a tabloid publisher to silence embarrassing stories from women who said they’d had extramarital affairs with him.
David Pecker, the former chief executive of the firm that published the National Enquirer, spent the majority of the week on the witness stand. Prosecutors wanted to use Pecker’s testimony to showcase the former president’s involvement in paying off women. Trump is accused of falsifying business records to cover up the payment of $130,000 to silence porn star Stormy Daniels.
Prosecutors said the payment’s purpose was to influence the 2016 election. Trump’s lawyers countered that the payment had nothing to do with the election, but instead was a standard nondisclosure agreement meant to protect his reputation and brand.

You obviously don't know anything about real estate, what fraud ?, you obviously didn't watch the whole speech on jan 6th I'd suggest you do that. , Presidents are allowed to declassify documents and take them with them suppose you think it was ok for Biden to take all of those documents he took tho Even tho it's illegal for vice presidents to declassify documents and take them when they leave . Hmmm another Kool aid drinking , fake press believing liberal . You people crack me up. Do some actual reading and research your facts before you run your mouth .
