Three former prosecutors told Insider that AG Alvin Bragg's hush-money case against Trump is weak. But if the matter does make it to trial, the former president could use his wife to his benefit. More than a week after former President Donald Trump was indicted on 34 charges of falsifying business records, legal experts are skeptical of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's case. Three former prosecutors speculated about possible defense strategies the former president might use in such a case. But legal experts stressed that any speculation about a possible Trump defense at this point is still entirely conjecture.

Melania Trump's stylist received $132,000 for "strategy consulting" in 2022, FEC filings show. Herve Pierre Braillard designed Melania Trump's dress for her husband's inaugural ball. Reports of Save America PAC paying Braillard first emerged in August 2022, showing at that time that the fund had paid the stylist $60,000 for "strategy consulting." The Federal Elections Commission does not allow PACs to spend money on personal items, but leadership PACs such as Save America PAC have fewer spending restrictions. Trump's Save America PAC was established in November 2020, just days after President Joe Biden's election victory, and has fundraised on the back of promoting voter fraud claims and supporting Trump's chosen candidates.
