Supporters of former President Donald Trump raised concerns about a prosecutor’s former employment with the Department of Justice.
Donald Trump’s supporters raised concerns about the connection between President Joe Biden and a prosecutor working on the former president’s hush money trial.
The second week of Trump’s first criminal trial began on Monday, with the former president facing charges of falsifying business documents after allegedly making a hush money payment to adult-film star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 campaign. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office alleged the payment was intended to prevent Daniels from speaking publicly about her claims of an affair with the former president.
Trump has denied having an affair with Daniels and pleaded not guilty to all criminal charges. He maintains his innocence and has accused Bragg of targeting him for political purposes, equating the trial to a form of election interference.
As opening arguments were underway on Monday, some of Trump’s supporters took to X, formerly Twitter, to share their concerns about Matthew Colangelo, one of the prosecutors who began presenting the case to the jurors.
