Former President Donald Trump has been indicted on 34 felony charges of falsifying business records in the first degree, with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg stating that the evidence will show that Trump did so to cover up crimes relating to the 2016 election. Trump's lawyer Joe Tacopina revealed that the former president did not have his mugshot taken when he surrendered to authorities, and Trump's 2024 presidential campaign sent out an email with a T-shirt donning a black-and-white photo of Trump from the shoulders up. This indictment raises questions about why Trump repeatedly made false statements and how the case will play out in the coming days.
