Trump’s ‘hush money’ NYC trial live updates: Here are the highlights from Day 2 of Trump’s ‘hush money’ trial

Donald Trump was at Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday, where he sat through jury selection in the first criminal trial against him.

Seven jurors have been selected so far to serve on the jury of the former president’s trial.

The “hush money” trial began Monday with screening of potential jurors, at least 50 of whom were dismissed after saying they could not be fair or impartial.

This is the first time a former US president has gone to trial over criminal charges — which stem from six-figure hush-money payments the ex-president allegedly made to former porn star Stormy Daniels and Playboy Playmate Karen McDougal ahead of the 2016 election.

Trump has pleaded not guilty to 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in an effort to cover up the payments to keep Daniels and McDougal quiet about alleged affairs the women say they had with him.

The trial is expected to last about two months, and Trump faces up to four years in prison if convicted.

Because it’s a criminal trial, the former commander-in-chief must show up at court every day that it’s in session.
