Former President Trump will not be attending the trial tomorrow as he has been granted a day off to attend his son Barron Trump's high school graduation. This means that the trial will not be in session tomorrow, with proceedings set to resume on Monday. The defense team is expected to continue their cross-examination of Michael Cohen when the trial reconvenes.
There has been speculation about whether former President Trump will take the stand during the trial. However, legal experts believe that it would be highly risky for Trump to testify, as the judge has ruled that the prosecution would have a broad scope for cross-examination if he does so. This could potentially harm Trump's case, leading many to believe that it is unlikely he will testify.
Despite any personal feelings towards Trump, New Yorkers are known for their aversion to being manipulated or deceived. The trial has garnered attention not just for its legal implications but also for the public perception of how the case is being handled. Many New Yorkers may dislike Trump, but they are unlikely to tolerate being treated as pawns in a legal battle.
As the trial progresses, it remains to be seen how the jury will ultimately rule. However, the legal consensus is that the defense team has positioned themselves favorably in the case. With the trial set to resume on Monday, all eyes will be on the courtroom as the proceedings continue.
