NEW YORK CITY - Former President and presumptive GOP candidate Donald Trump started a trial on Monday where he faces charges on hush money he allegedly paid to adult film actress Stormy Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal. Trump is making history as the first former president to stand trial on criminal charges.
The businessman turned politician is facing 34 counts on criminal charges for falsifying business records. This was allegedly done as part of a scheme to bury damaging stories that he feared could hurt his 2016 presidential campaign.
