"Trump's Manhattan Criminal Trial: A Day of Weariness and Thin Crowds"
TL;DR
Former President Donald J. Trump appeared alternately irritated and exhausted during pretrial proceedings in his criminal case, at times nodding off and exchanging notes with his lead lawyer. He smirked, scoffed, and appeared frustrated, but also showed a flash of humor. The case centers on salacious allegations and could impact his bid for the presidency, with the judge warning of potential consequences if he disrupts the proceedings.
