The BBC has been speaking to two former prosecutors about the Trump case, with wildly different interpretations. | |
Ambrosio Rodriguez, who isn't a Trump fan, thinks the former president is being prosecuted unfairly because of who he is. | |
Rodriguez says the case relies on old allegations, and says the trial is "a waste of time, and not good for the country". | |
"This seems just a political need and want to get Trump no matter what the costs are." | |
Others disagree. Nick Akerman, who worked on the Watergate case, thinks it's far more serious. | |
"This is about an effort to defraud the American voters in 2016 to keep them from learning material information that would have affected their vote," he said. | |
Trump's lawyers say he hid the payment to Stormy Daniels to save his family from embarrassment - not to hide it from voters. | |
Akerman disagrees: "First of all, all of this was done right before the election, it had nothing to do with his family," he added. | |
