NEW YORK, NEW YORK - APRIL 25: Former U.S. President Donald Trump exits the courtroom during a break in his criminal trial for allegedly covering up hush money payments at Manhattan Criminal Court on April 25, 2024 in New York City. Trump was charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records last year, which prosecutors say was an effort to hide a potential sex scandal, both before and after the 2016 presidential election. Trump is the first former U.S. president to face trial on criminal charges. (Photo by Jeenah Moon-Pool/Getty Images)
