"Trump's Hush Money Trial: Jury Selection Begins Amid Campaign Trail Juggling"

Donald Trump will become the first former president to stand trial on criminal charges as his hush money case opens with jury selection. The case involves allegations of falsifying internal Trump Organization records to bury damaging stories during his 2016 campaign, focusing on payoffs to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal. Trump faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, with potential political ramifications as it could reach a verdict before the November election. Jury selection will involve questioning potential biases, and key witnesses are expected to include Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and plans to attack the case by undermining the credibility of prosecution witnesses.
