Trump's Legal Cases and Potential Conviction Impact Republican Party's 2024 Election Chances

Former President Donald Trump's legal cases and potential conviction are expected to have significant implications for the Republican party's chances in the 2024 election. Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, testified that Trump arbitrarily inflated his net worth to secure favorable insurance premiums. A federal judge has barred Trump from making smear campaigns against prosecutors and potential witnesses in a criminal case accusing him of election interference. Trump is expected to attend the fraud trial next week, where he could face financial penalties and be prohibited from running companies in New York.
