Story

President Biden will be in Philadelphia for campaigning, while former President Donald Trump will be in a New York City courtroom for his trial. This is about the race for the White House. President Biden is trying to get support for his presidency, while Donald Trump is dealing with legal issues. The news is from CBS News political reporter Zak Hudak. President Biden wants to win the election, so he is talking to people in Philadelphia. Donald Trump is facing a trial in New York City. The trial is almost finished. The verdict of the trial is not known yet. After the trial, Donald Trump will continue to criticize his opponents publicly and privately. He will also ask his Republican friends in the House to investigate his Democratic enemies. Donald Trump's former communication director, Alyssa Farah Griffin, says that no matter what happens in the trial, Donald Trump will act the same way. His team is deciding what to do after the trial. The public may not be very interested in the trial about Donald Trump's business records and payments to a porn star during the 2016 election. The election race seems to be stable. As the trial's end nears, people thought it would be a big moment, but now it seems like it might not be so important. Stormy Daniels, the porn star involved in the case, was paid to keep quiet before the 2016 election. Some people see similarities between this trial and the one against President Clinton in the 1990s. The public's interest in both trials seems to be similar. The trial against Donald Trump is seen by some as having a political aspect. The prosecutor, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, campaigned on taking on Trump in court. Some people think there is a political bias in the case. It is unlikely that the legal issues will stop Donald Trump's political influence. This trial is the only one likely to finish before the election in November. Donald Trump held a rally in the Bronx, a place with many black and Hispanic residents. Some of his supporters believe he is challenging the political system in the US.
