Trump broke election rules by paying porn stars before the 2016 election. It is alleged that he kept the matter a secret.
Former US President Donald Trump has to appear in Manhattan court on Monday. He is also contesting the elections this year. He is charged with 34 felony counts.
Allegedly, before the 2016 election, Trump paid porn star Stormy Daniels a huge sum of money to silence her. But he kept it a secret from the Election Commission. That is, he did not mention this information.
Daniel accused Trump of molestation. It is alleged that Trump tried to bribe Daniel to cover up the allegations before the election. Government lawyers said in court that Trump paid the money while keeping the information secret.
According to him, Michelle Cohen was Trump’s lawyer at that time. Trump sent money to Daniel with his hand.
The prosecutor complained to the court that Trump used illegal means in the 2016 election. He tried to suppress the allegations against him by spending money keeping the information secret.
Naturally, Trump’s lawyers are reluctant to accept this charge. Their counter statement is that there is a conspiracy against Trump before the 2024 election.
The hearing of this case may continue in the court for the next two months. Trump must also be present there. As a result, Trump will have to go to the court instead of going to the election rally.
Trump said this day, ‘This conspiracy is going on to remove me from the election campaign. But I can’t be defeated like this.’ In fact, even if Trump’s allegations are proven in this case, he will be able to participate in the 2024 election and become president if he wins the vote.
