Trump's NYC Arrival Sets Stage for Civil Fraud Trial

Former President Donald Trump arrives in New York City ahead of his civil fraud trial, where he and his company are facing a $250 million lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James. Trump, who campaigned in Iowa earlier in the day, expressed his intention to fight against what he perceives as a biased attorney general and judge. The trial, presided over by Judge Arthur Engoron, is set to begin with opening statements from both sides. Trump and his close associates are potential witnesses, but their testimonies are not expected for several weeks. The trial is estimated to last about three months. Trump's Trump Tower property could be at risk depending on the trial's outcome.
