Trump Hush Money Trials: Shocking Revelations and Delays
TL;DR Summary
In a blow to former President Donald Trump's upcoming Manhattan felony trial, the judge ruled that jurors can hear about a 2015 Trump Tower meeting where hush money was discussed, involving Trump, Michael Cohen, and David Pecker. The judge also allowed Stormy Daniels, Karen McDougal, and Cohen to testify. The ruling expands the boundaries of testimony and evidence linking Trump directly to hush money payments, making it harder for the defense to minimize his involvement. Additionally, the judge rejected Trump's request to exclude mention of his role in influencing the 2016 election and the National Enquirer's "catch and kill" practices.
