Trump New York trial: Testimony resumes as judge prepares gag order ruling

Donald Trump will be back in a New York criminal court on Tuesday, when a banker who played a role in the hush money payment to a porn star will resume testimony over his links to the former president’s ex-attorney and fixer, Michael Cohen.

On Friday, testimony ended with Gary Farro, a senior managing director at the now-defunct First Republic Bank in New York, who described setting up an account in October 2016 for Cohen to make a $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels, the adult film actress who claims she had an affair with Trump in 2006.
