May 24, 20233 yr Donald Trump will face a criminal trial in March 2024, a New York judge has ruled, as the Republican's campaign for the presidential nomination will be in full swing. The former US president received the news at a hearing on Tuesday in the case about the alleged concealment of a payment to a porn star. Mr Trump was charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. He pleaded not guilty to each charge last month. After the hearing, Mr Trump aired his frustrations at the timing of the trial on his social network, Truth Social. "They forced upon us a trial date of March 25th, right in the middle of the primary season," Mr Trump wrote, adding it was "very unfair" and "election interference".
