President Joe Biden only smirked in response to a reporter’s question following Trump not-guilty plea to 34 counts of falsifying business records on Tuesday.
President Joe Biden laughed when asked by a reporter if the indictment against former President Donald Trump was „politically divisive.“
Trump pleaded not guilty on Tuesday to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records stemming from a $130,000 payment made to adult-film star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign. The hush money paid by Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney, is tied to an alleged affair between Daniels and Trump—making Trump the first sitting or former U.S. president to be charged in a criminal investigation.
The former president has denied having an affair with Daniels and has maintained his innocence, accusing prosecutors of engaging in a politically motivated witch hunt aimed at weakening his 2024 presidential bid.
Biden has remained mum on Trump’s ongoing legal strife.
