Donald Trump Indictment: Weathering the Storm #IndiaNEWSAll #International
On 30 March 2023, Former US President Donald Trump has been indicted by a grand jury in New York in the New York Supreme Court over violations of campaign finance laws during the 2016 election. This will be the first time in US history that either a current or former president has faced a criminal indictment. The details of the charges are officially unknown but supposedly are with regards to payments made to keep Stormy Daniels, a former adult film actor quiet on her alleged extramarital sexual relations with Trump during the presidential campaign. Trumps arraignment is scheduled for next Tuesday.
As the legal process unfolds and details come to the American people, many will be watching closely to see how it plays out, especially given the historic nature of the indictment. It remains to be seen how Trump and his supporters will respond to the charges, and what impact they will have on the American political landscape going forward.
Who is Stormy Daniels?
Stephanie Clifford, AKA Stormy Daniels, is a former adult film actor who gained public attention for her alleged affair with Trump. Stormy Daniels claimed to have met Trump in 2006 during a charity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe, where Trump invited her to dinner they engaged in consensual sex. However, Trump has denied this. The story gained attention in 2018 when it was revealed that Stormy Daniels received USD 1,30,000 for her silence just before the 2016 presidential election.
Corruption charge
The payment to Stormy Daniels is the subject of the Manhattan district attorneys indictment of Trump for the possible violation of campaign finance laws. Stormy Daniels has become a public figure, making media appearances. She has even considered running for a US Senate seat in Louisiana in 2010. Stormy Daniels has spoken out against Trump.

How many charges are against Trump?
While Trump has faced many lawsuits, the indictment is particularly serious both personally and politically. Beyond this trial, many investigations are already underway.
First, the investigations are being led by the Manhattan District Attorney. The Manhattan District Attorney is looking at the business practices of his family company, the Trump Organisation. They are examining whether the company committed various acts of fraud over several decades. This may reveal a longer history of corruption by the company.
Another investigation is being launched by the Department of Justice. The Department is looking into the removal of government documents from the White House. These documents were taken to Trumps Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago after he left office.
