Trump’s lawyer called a deal with the investigation unlikely

Donald Trump will not make a deal with the investigation because of the alleged charges in the “Stormy Daniels case”. This is reported by the lawyer of former US President Joe Takopina, transmits NBC.

“President Trump will not accept a plea deal in this case. This will not happen,” he said. Tacopina also noted that Trump is not going to “hide out” in his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.

Earlier today, March 31, Tacopina suggestedthat the former US president will be charged on April 4 in the case of sending hidden payments “for silence” during his 2016 election campaign. It was clarified that it was payments for porn actress Stormy Daniels. The exact date when the indictment will be disclosed is not yet known.

According to prosecutors, Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen handed over the money to Daniels to “buy silence” over the actress’ alleged ties to Trump. Trump himself denies any ties to her. Now Cohen is testifying against the former US president. In total, about 30 episodes of business fraud appear in the case.

Trump himself considers himself “completely innocent.” According to him, this is “political persecution and interference in elections at the highest level in history.” “I think this witch hunt will hit Joe Biden hard,” he said. Biden himself has not yet commented on the incident.

The fact that Trump may be detained in the near future, the former US president informed 18th of March. According to him, this information came to Trump due to “leaks” in the “corrupt and highly politicized district attorney’s office of Manhattan.”

It is specified that the filing of a criminal charge will be the first case in US history against a current or former president of the country. Despite the investigation, Trump’s popularity among Republicans continues to grow, many of them support him, according to opinion polls.
