Today’s legal shenanigans are just the beginning for Mr Trump.
He faces an entire panoply of legal cases – including three criminal investigations and a series of civil actions.

And that means at least a decade of subpoenas, grand juries and special investigations – with Mr Trump determined to prove he’s done nothing wrong.
