Reporter with Trump Slouching in his seat and sometimes closing his eyes, prosecutor Matthew Colangelo began his Opening Statement charging trump Orchestrated A Criminal Scheme to corrupt the 2016 president ial election. Taking notes, as the prosecutor laid out his case, Accusing Trump of falsifying Business Records to disguise a 130,000 hush payment to porn star Stormy Daniels days before the election, so voters wouldnt find out about her claim of an affair.

The prosecutor today quoting trumps own words to the jury. When youre a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Reporter you can do anything, the prosecutor slowly reciting to the jury. Prosecutors said the tapes impact was explosive and trump and his campaign were deeply concerned. So when trump learned Stormy Daniels was shopping a story of their alleged liaison, prosecutors said he was adamant it not come out, fearing, it could have been devastating to his campaign.
