Donald Trump in Court

Closing arguments wrap in Trump hush money trial

Prosecutors have claimed that Trump partook in a "conspiracy and cover up" plot to hide embarrassing stories that could have hurt his election in 2016. But defense lawyers claimed that Trump has not committed any crimes, painted the prosecution's star witness Michael Cohen as "the greatest liar of all time," and claimed that prosecutors have failed to meet the "burden of proof."
