I'm testifying. I tell the truth. I mean all I can do is tell the truth and the

truth is that there's no case. They have no case.

On Monday in New York City I will be forced to sit fully gags. I'm not allowed to talk.

Can you believe it? They want to take away my constitutional right to talk.

I have a crooked judge.

This has never happened before by the way you do know that right?

With all of the things they did with millions of pages of study, they found

nothing which makes me perhaps the most honest guy almost in the world I think they found nothing

well he's right about one part of that this has definitely never happened before. Today is an historic day as

Donald Trump becomes the first former president to face a criminal trial. We are

hours away now from the start of jury selection in the hush money

case against Donald Trump. Thousands of New Yorkers will be a part of that

process. The self-proclaimed most honest guy in the world is accused of having an affair

with adult film actress Stormy Daniels, then coordinating a hush money payment to her prior to the 2016 presidential election.

The scheme has Trump facing 34 felony charges tied to falsifying financial documents,

which prosecutors say he did to conceal the reimbursements

he made to his former attorney and fixer Michael Cohen.

We're going to have expert legal analysis on this case throughout the morning

and of course it starts at 930 Eastern time and we'll be covering the proceedings live and

get reporting from the courthouse good morning and welcome to morning Joe it is

Monday April 15th with us we have the host of way too early White House

Bureau Chief at Politico, Jonathan Lemir.
