Former President Donald Trump speaks before entering the courtroom at Manhattan criminal court, in New York City, April 16, 2024. — Reuters pool picNEW YORK, April 16 — Donald Trump arrived at a Manhattan courthouse for the second day of his historic hush-money trial on Tuesday, as lawyers try to choose 12 jurors to consider the guilt or innocence of the first former US president to face criminal charges. The first day yesterday underscored the challenges of the task.
In other jurisdictions, he stands accused of mishandling classified information and trying to overturn his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden. But the hush-money case may be the only one to go to trial before Trump faces Biden again in the Nov. 5 election. If convicted, Trump would still be able to run for office and serve as president if he won. But a Reuters/Ipsos poll found that half of independents and a quarter of his fellow Republicans would not vote for him if he is found guilty.
“He thinks he’s superior, I guess, to the Supreme Court. We’ve got a real problem with this judge,” Trump said after Monday’s session.
