Trump criminal trial begins in New York court

Former President Donald Trump’s criminal trial began Monday in New York. He’s facing a 34-count felony indictment that alleges he and others falsified business records to conceal payments to Stormy Daniels, which prosecutors say influenced the 2016 presidential election.

Jury selection for the trial begins Monday. NPR’s Domenico Montanaro joins host Scott Tong.
