"Mary Trump's Testimony and Hush Money Trial Shake Trump's Post-Presidential Plans"

Mary Trump believes that the confirmed April 15 trial date for Donald Trump's falsifying business records trial in New York could be his "worst nightmare," potentially leading to a criminal conviction before the 2024 election and damaging his presidential hopes. Despite Trump's dismissal of the impact on his White House aspirations, Mary Trump cited polling data suggesting that a conviction could significantly hinder his chances. Legal experts suggest that even if found guilty, it is unlikely that Trump would face jail time, but the trial's outcome could still have significant political implications.
