Closing Arguments in Trump Hush Money Trial: Key Moments and Potential Outcomes

Closing arguments were presented in former President Donald Trump's criminal trial regarding alleged hush money payments to Stormy Daniels. Trump's defense argued that the prosecution failed to meet the burden of proof and attacked the credibility of key witness Michael Cohen. The prosecution countered by emphasizing evidence and testimonies from Trump's allies, asserting that Trump knowingly participated in a scheme to influence the 2016 election. The jury will now deliberate on whether to convict Trump, potentially making him the first former U.S. president to face a criminal conviction.
