Though historic, it’s just the first of several separate federal and state cases Trump is currently facing, all while he tries to regain his old seat at the White House. In this case, prosecutors alleged that the Trump Organization reimbursed his former personal lawyer Michael Cohen for hush money payments to porn actor Stormy Daniels, to keep her from going public with a story about her and Trump having sex. Witnesses at the trial included Daniels and Cohen as well as David Pecker, the former publisher of the tabloid the National Enquirer, who helped broker the deal with Daniels.

Trump was charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records. It was brought as a felony case because Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg alleges he committed the crime with the intent to commit or conceal another crime, like violating federal campaign finance laws or state election law, though he’s not directly charged with those crimes.

The former president’s future legal battles include going to challenges over his retention of classified documents in his Mar-a-Lago bathroom and his alleged election interference through a phone call to a Georgia election official imploring to “find” enough votes for him to win the state.
