"Trump's Hush Money Trial: Jury Selection Resumes Amid Legal Expert Concerns"

A juror was excused from Donald Trump's hush money trial in New York after feeling intimidated due to aspects of her identity being made public, leaving six jurors remaining. The trial, which involves 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, has faced extraordinary pressures, including Trump's criticism of witnesses and court officials, leading to a partial gag order. Jury selection continues as lawyers seek fair jurors in heavily Democratic Manhattan, with the trial potentially impacting Trump's upcoming election rematch with President Joe Biden. If convicted, a Reuters/Ipsos poll suggests that a significant portion of voters may not support Trump.
