the story of the porn star stormy daniels is central to the case. the prosecution said that paying her $130,000 in hush money was election fraud, pure and simple, orchestrated by donald trump. the court will hear evidence from trump's former fixer, now sworn enemy, michael cohen. he'll describe making that payment on mr trump's instructions. the defence will brand him an admitted liar and convicted criminal, who's now obsessed with his former boss. mr cohen was earlier involved in paying off a playboy model, karen mcdougal, who also said she'd had an affair with donald trump. he even recorded a conversation with mr trump about that deal, which the prosecution will use to show a pattern of behaviour. it will be a dramatic moment when michael cohen gives evidence as the prosecution's star witness, and there may be some rather more salacious testimony as well. donald trump's lawyers believe stormy daniels herself will be called to the stand. the first witness was david pecker, from the national enquirer magazine, who the prosecution claim conspired wit

did you know about $130,000 payments to stormy daniels? but manhattan's district attorney alleges trump directed those payments as part of a scheme to help his 2016 campaign for the presidency and then falsified business records when he disguised the payments as legal fees. less than two weeks before the presidential election, michael cohen wired $130,000 to stormy daniels' lawyer. that payment was to hide damaging information from the voting public. the participant scheme was illegal. political and legal experts disagree over the significance of the case. i think this case isjust so unique compared to the others. the others are really focused on actions that he truly undertook to undermine our democracy, right. and so this case is about, it's about paying off a mistress. it's a serious case. this is notjust about a porn star, which some people are trying to portray it as. this is about an effort to defraud the american voters in 2016 to keep them from learning material information that would have affected their vote. the trial begins with
