Today in two courtrooms, two very Different Cases but with one central character, donald trump and one central question. Will there be consequences for his alleged attempts to break the law either now or in the future if hes reelected. Here in New York City, also even more testimony from david pecker and the Hush Money Trial about the lengths to which he, donald trump and Michael Cohen, went to protect his image during the 2016 campaign.
