Former President Donald Trump has been charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a hush money payment made to porn actor Stormy Daniels during his 2016 Presidential campaign. According to two law enforcement officials, Trump entered a plea of not guilty at his Tuesday arraignment. Such a criminal reckoning is a remarkable event for Trump, considering the years of investigations into his various dealings. This legal struggle comes as Trump continues his attempted comeback for the White House in the upcoming elections. Investigations are also underway in Washington D.C. and Atlanta, which may result in more charges for the former President.
