onald Trump’s son has decried the recent decision to indict his dad over a 2016 hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com Thursday shortly after a Manhattan grand jury elected to charge Trump criminally for the $130,000 payment, Eric Trump slammed the ruling as a ‘ruthless attack’ and an example of ‘the decline of American Law.’
Still not specified, the charges serve as the first time in history that an ex-president has faced a criminal case – with the exact allegations expected to be announced in the coming days.
The decision – announced Thursday afternoon – further marks the end of a years long investigation into money paid to the adult movie star, allegedly to buy her silence.
It also marks a victory for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, whose office was responsible for the probe into the payment, confirmed to be made by former Trump fixer Michael Cohen during the 2016 presidential campaign.
