Trump's Last-Ditch Appeals Denied as Hush Money Trial Looms
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump is appealing a judge's ruling that rejected his "presidential immunity" defense in his New York criminal hush money case, just days before the trial is set to begin. The appeal also questions the judge's decision not to recuse himself. Trump faces 34 felony counts for allegedly falsifying business records in payments to his former attorney Michael Cohen, and has repeatedly attempted to delay the trial, which is scheduled to start next week.
