Donald Trump's criminal trial starting Monday in New York will be unprecedented as no former US president has faced trial for criminal charges before. Trump is accused of falsifying business records related to hush money payments made to Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign. A March Politico/Ipsos poll indicated that a conviction in the hush money case could significantly harm Trump's political support, with one-third of independent voters stating they would be less likely to vote for him if convicted. Trump's legal troubles have rallied Republicans among primary voters.
