JUST IN: Alvin Bragg’s Prosecutors Lie About 2016 Election in Opening Statement to Jurors
Opening statements were underway in President Trump’s ‘hush payment’ trial in New York City on Monday morning.
Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s prosecutors lied during their opening statement and claimed Trump “orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election” when he paid porn star Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about their alleged affair.
Trump has denied the affair.
“The defendant, Donald Trump, orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election. Then he covered up that criminal conspiracy by lying in his New York business records over and over and over again,” prosecutor Matthew Colangelo told jurors, according to AP.
Alvin Bragg indicted Trump last April on 34 felony counts related to ‘hush payments’ he made to Stormy Daniels.
