Donald Trump will be back in court tomorrow morning for closing arguments in his New York

election interference trial.

He's been charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to hide a hush

money payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels

before the 2016 election for her alleged sexual encounter with Donald Trump.

NBC News reports that about a dozen members of the public have already lined up

and are continuing to do so even in the rain to get a seat for this historic moment.

Closing arguments will be both the prosecution and the defense's final chance

to weave the evidence into the narrative of their case for the jury's deliberations.

In New York, the defense goes first, arguing that the prosecution has a

failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Donald Trump committed the crime

of falsifying business records with the intent to influence the 2016 election.

Then the prosecution will recap its case,

tying together testimony from its 20 witnesses

and the evidence, including documents with handwritten notes accounting for just how the

hush money payment was to be reimbursed to Michael Cohen, who testified that he did it

at the direction of and for the benefit of Donald Trump.

Closing arguments are expected to take up most if not the entire day tomorrow,

which will be followed by Judge Mershawn, giving the jury instructions, which is expected to last

about an hour.

Then Donald Trump's fate will be in the hands of the jury, which could reach a verdict

at any point after that, potentially even as early as this week.
