What are 34 felony charges against Trump, and what do they reveal?

Image
  Last week, we learned Donald Trump had been charged with a crime. Now we know the  former US president faces 34 counts of falsifying business records. Although falsifying records are usually treated as lesser misdemeanours, Mr Trump is accused of committing felony offences. That denotes a more serious crime, which could include prison time if a maximum sentence is given. "At its core, this case today is one with allegations like so many of our white-collar cases," New York City District Attorney Alvin Bragg said of the charges his office has brought against the former president. "Allegations that someone lied, again and again, to protect their interests and evade the laws to which we are all held accountable."

"There was nothing done illegally!" he posted on his social media website. That, however, will be for a jury to decide. I

The former porn star at the heart of Donald Trump's historic indictment in New York has been ordered to pay him more than $121,000 (£96,965) towards legal fees in an unrelated case.      Stormy Daniels, alleged to have had an affair with Mr Trump in 2006, lost her defamation case over a     2018 tweet written by the former US president.   An appeals court judge in California dismissed Ms Daniels' case, and awarded Mr Trump a payment for legal fees. Mr Trump has denied the affair. The civil defamation lawsuit brought by Ms Daniels was entirely separate from  the 34 charges filed against Mr Trump  in Manhattan on Tuesday. While both cases involve Ms Daniels, the New York indictment relates to a payment made to her during the 2016 presidential election -  alleged to have been "hush money" to keep quiet   but not properly recorded. Ms Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, sued Mr Trump after he called an allegation by Ms Daniels a "total con job" in
