TL;DR

Former President Donald Trump is set to go on trial in Manhattan for his alleged involvement in a hush money scheme to silence his alleged mistresses before the 2016 election, making it the first criminal trial for a former US president. The payments to the mistresses, Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels, were made through a "catch and kill" process and a nondisclosure agreement. Both Cohen and AMI have admitted to breaking laws, and Trump faces multiple criminal trials and civil liabilities. The trial is expected to be historic and salacious, but it may not be the most significant legal challenge Trump faces.
