Eric Trump: My father makes millions 'every time he walks into a courtroom'

As the date for jury selection in Donald Trump's New York hush money trial fast approaches, the former president's son, Eric Trump, appeared on Fox News Wednesday and was asked about the upcoming trial by Fox host Brian Kilmeade, who pointed out that his father is mandated to be in the courtroom each day of the trial -- a factor that could cripple his campaigning.

Trump headed to 'the presidential suite at Rikers Island' if found guilty: expert

Former President Donald Trump's longtime chief accountant Allen Weisslberg is about to head to jail — and, said former Watergate prosecutor Nick Akerman on CNN Wednesday, the former president may have to join him there before long.

The case is unrelated to Trump's upcoming Manhattan criminal trial beginning next Monday, which centers on his alleged hush payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels to conceal information from voters in the 2016 election.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is challenging House Speaker Mike Johnson's leadership, and panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" agreed the Georgia Republican appeared to be "running the show."
