Trump Is Just Days Away from His First Criminal Trial

“Donald Trump is close to running out of time in his last-ditch bid to stave off the historic stigma of being the first former president to go on criminal trial next week,” CNN reports.

“The presumptive Republican nominee suffered yet another courtroom defeat on Monday in an attempt to delay his hush money trial and move it out of Manhattan. His latest legal defeat moves him – and the nation – to the threshold of a divisive spectacle that will further strain the justice and political systems and that could have an unpredictable impact on November’s election.”

Axios: “The judge overseeing former President Trump’s hush money trial released on Monday a questionnaire that he plans to use in the New York case’s jury selection process.”
