"Trump's Legal Team Shake-Up and Potential Jail Time Amid Gag Order Controversy"

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump may consider firing his legal team in a bid to delay his upcoming hush money trial, with attorney Joyce Vance suggesting that he may seek Judge Juan Merchan's recusal from the case or dismiss his lawyers. The trial will determine whether Trump falsified business records over hush money payments to Stormy Daniels, with prosecutors alleging it was part of a scheme to conceal an alleged affair before the 2016 election. Trump, who has denied any wrongdoing, is also facing other criminal indictments related to the 2020 election and alleged obstruction of justice.
