"Judge Denies Trump's Delay Motion for NY Hush Money Trial Amid Immunity Ruling"
TL;DR
A Manhattan judge rejected Donald Trump's bid for "presidential immunity" in his hush money trial, allowing prosecutors to share his statements about Stormy Daniels with jurors. The judge ruled that Trump's effort was too late and failed to provide a convincing explanation for the delay. The hush money trial remains on track for jury selection on April 15, with the Manhattan District Attorney alleging that Trump falsified business documents to disguise the payment to Daniels. Trump has pleaded not guilty and faces up to four years in prison if convicted.
