Donald Trump’s presidency comprised a series of firsts: the occupant of the Oval Office without any prior military or government service. The first to be impeached twice. And last night, he made further history, becoming the first former US President to be criminally indicted.
The charges relate not to his actions around the January 6 Capitol attacks but to hush money paid to a porn star, Stormy Daniels. While the charges are not yet known, with indictments under seal, reports indicate that Trump faces more than 30 counts.
