"Trump's Converging Legal Challenges: A Complete Guide"

Donald Trump faces a crucial Monday as he deals with two major legal threats: a criminal trial in New York and a half-billion-dollar bond requirement for a civil fraud judgment. He must secure a bond to avoid a financial crisis for the Trump Organization, but his lawyers have indicated it's a "practical impossibility." If he fails to do so, the New York attorney general could freeze his bank accounts and seize properties, while the judge in his criminal case could set a trial date for as soon as next month. These simultaneous threats encapsulate Trump's long-held fears of criminal conviction and public perception of his financial situation.
