The 45th President of the United States is in for an uphill battle now that the charges against him have been revealed. He appeared in a Manhattan court today with some of his legal team; Susan Necheles, Todd Blanche, and Joe Tacopina.
He was also accompanied by his two senior advisers, Boris Epshteyn and Jason Miller. The large entourage was no surprise as Trump was seen leaving Mar-a-Lago on Monday afternoon with a video crew in tow.
Photographers made the trip from Florida to Manhattan to document Trump’s inauguration and everything leading up to it.
Donald Trump’s Criminal Record

The 2024 presidential hopeful was accused of paying adult film actress Stormy Daniels before his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump had been in a relationship with Daniels for years before that.
Fearing that this might happen during his campaign, he chose to pay her to remain silent. It obviously didn’t work because look where we are today! But also, someone who runs the whole country, even if you pay to keep things quiet, it probably won’t stay quiet.

Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, has said in several media interviews that she met Trump in 2006 at a charity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe. She and Trump returned to his suite and had sex.
When asked about Trump’s new wife when Melania Trump just gave birth, Daniels said, “She doesn’t seem worried about it. He’s a bit arrogant.” She noted that Trump never asked her to keep quiet about their time together.
By 2016, Trump’s then-lawyer Michael Cohen paid him $130,000 in “hush money” to never admit to the affair. In 2018, the scandal broke and Daniels agreed to a 60 Minutes interview, opening herself and her baby girl up to alleged threats from insiders on Trump’s team.
What Will Donald Trump Do Now?

If anything, it appears that these allegations and subsequent charges have pushed Trump to go even harder in the 2024 campaign. Videographers hanging around him are allegedly collecting footage to use for Trump campaign videos and on the campaign trail.
This is a historic moment in history, never before has another president been indicted on federal charges. Trump wants to make history and this move whether the charges stick or not will put him in the history books forever. He also obviously pleaded not guilty so he will be working hard on the legal defense he will use to save face.

There were also fears that riots would break out around New York City regardless of the outcome. By the time the charges were revealed, the space outside the Manhattan courthouse was filled with a mix of protesters, paparazzi, news organizations, and busy New Yorkers trying to move past the drama and go about their normal lives.

The threat seems to have calmed down a bit but the NYPD is still very active and active in the area in case anyone tries any funny business.
As for Trump, he reportedly plans to meet again with his legal team at Mar-a-Lago where he is supposed to make a public statement about the charges he faces.
