TL;DR Summary

A hearing on Thursday will determine if Donald Trump's hush-money trial will proceed as scheduled on March 25 in New York, marking his first criminal trial since being indicted. Judge Juan Manuel Merchan is expected to rule on key pretrial issues, including a request by Trump's lawyers to dismiss the case, which they claim is politically motivated. The case centers on alleged payoffs to two women and a doorman to bury stories about extramarital affairs during Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
