Former President Donald Trump is set to face his first criminal trial on Monday, April 15, marking a historic moment as he becomes the first former U.S. president to be tried on criminal charges. The trial, taking place in Manhattan, revolves around allegations that Trump falsified business records in 34 counts to conceal hush money payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. These payments were allegedly made to suppress information that could have negatively impacted his 2016 presidential campaign. The trial begins with jury selection and is expected to draw significant attention, both nationally and internationally.
