    • Abstract:
      Jury selection is set to begin for Donald Trump's first criminal trial, making it the first case against a U.S. president in American history. Trump is accused of paying hush money to a porn star and is framing the case as an "illegal attack on a political opponent." This trial is seen as a watershed moment for the presidency and U.S. history, as it is unprecedented for a former president to be tried in a criminal case. The trial will test the justice system's ability to handle a former president and will have significant implications for American exceptionalism and the rule of law. [Extracted from the article]
