Donald Trump launches last-minute attempt to delay hush money trial in New York
Former President Donald Trump is once again making headlines, this time with a last-minute attempt to delay the hush money trial in New York. The trial, which is set to begin on Monday, revolves around allegations that Trump paid hush money to two women who claimed to have had affairs with him in the past.
Trump’s legal team filed a motion on Friday requesting a delay in the trial, citing concerns about the timing of key witnesses’ availability and the need for additional time to review evidence. The motion also argued that the trial should be delayed until after the upcoming midterm elections, as the case could potentially impact the political landscape.
This latest move by Trump comes as no surprise, as he has a history of using legal tactics to delay or avoid facing consequences for his actions. However, many legal experts believe that this last-minute attempt to delay the trial is unlikely to be successful, as the judge has already set a trial date and has been clear about his expectations for both parties.
The hush money trial is just one of many legal battles that Trump is currently facing, including investigations into his business practices and tax returns. The outcome of this trial could have significant implications for Trump’s political future, as it could further tarnish his reputation and potentially impact his chances of running for office again in the future.
Despite Trump’s attempts to delay the trial, the wheels of justice continue to turn, and it seems unlikely that he will be able to avoid facing the consequences of his actions for much longer. As the trial gets underway, all eyes will be on New York as the legal battle unfolds and the truth about Trump’s alleged hush money payments is finally revealed.
