The Washington Post reported, “Donald Trump and his associates have fought the criminal case he faces here by ignoring the impact of alleged conduct that occurred years ago and centering the prosecution on seemingly boring business record topics.”
“But the final moves before jury selection began Monday showed that prosecutors plan to come up with a different kind of story that has much more in common with the tabloid fodder that fueled Trump’s fame. Despite low scores in the final weeks of the 2016 election, he went on to win.”
“That framing could shake expectations about the importance of the trial among voters considering whether to return Trump to the White House in November.”
