Trump, the 45th President of the United States, has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury. This marks the first time in American history that a US President has been charged with a crime.<\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1663871513696-art-1\" style=\"min-width: 320px; min-height: 50px;  text-align: center;\">\n\t<script>\t\t\n\t\tgoogletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1663871513696-art-1'); });  \t\n\t<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>The grand jury&#8217;s decision pertains to an alleged payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, whom Trump is alleged to have had an affair with. The payment, which amounted to $130,000, was made to Daniels by Michael Cohen, Trump&#8217;s former personal attorney, during the 2016 presidential campaign, in exchange for her silence about her affair with Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Cohen has claimed that he initially paid Daniels with his own money, but was later reimbursed by the Trump Organization under the guise of legal expenses. This led the Manhattan District Attorney, Alvin Bragg, to charge Cohen with falsifying business records.<\/p>\n<p>Following the news, Trump released a statement in which he referred to the investigation as a &#8220;political witch-hunt trying to take down the leading candidate, by far, in the Republican Party.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trump continues to deny the affair and maintains that he has done nothing wrong.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, Cohen pleaded guilty to charges related to the Daniels payment and was imprisoned for three years.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(Photo by Chip Somodevilla\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After the announcement, Cohen released a statement on social media.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote data-service=\"twitter\" data-category=\"marketing\" data-placeholder-image=\"https:\/\/c3.oann.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/complianz-gdpr\/assets\/images\/placeholders\/twitter-minimal.jpg\" class=\"cmplz-placeholder-element twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">JUST IN: Statement from Trump\u2019s former fixer and attorney Michael Cohen  in the indictment of the former President <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VI32uLyIWk\">pic.twitter.com\/VI32uLyIWk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Reena Roy (@reenaroy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/reenaroy\/status\/1641558557643485191?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 30, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" data-service=\"twitter\" data-category=\"marketing\" async data-cmplz-src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script> <\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Some insiders have suggested that the grand jury would take over a month to reach a consensus, but the decision was made on Thursday.
