Will it be the jailhouse or the White House for Donald Trump this year? The women in his life could make all the difference.

Trump's women

Even by the standards of the Trump years, the past 12 months have been spectacularly wacky – a political soap opera where the scriptwriters have jumped the shark. In America’s almost 250-year political history, no sitting or former US president has ever been charged with a crime. Yet within the space of six months, Donald J. Trump racked up four criminal indictments and 91 separate felony charges.

The one-time occupant of the White House now faces the possibility of ending up in a very different form of government accommodation: A prison cell. Yet, despite potential prison sentences, he remains the frontrunner in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, and presently stands a strong chance of being re-elected president in this November’s election.

To make a dramatic return to the White House, Trump needs to win back the suburban women who voted for him in 2016 but switched to Joe Biden in 2020.

Women, who outnumber male voters in America, tend to decide presidential elections. Let’s look at the evidence, and the role the women of America could play in his fate.

Prosecutors have assembled quite the rap sheet. In his home state of New York, Trump will face trial in a case involving alleged hush money payments to a former adult film star, Stormy Daniels, who claims she had an extramarital affair with the New York tycoon before he became president.

In Miami, he’s been accused of mishandling top-secret documents, some of which he allegedly stored in the ornate bathrooms of his luxury Florida mansion, Mar-a-Lago, where they were piled in cardboard boxes amidst the gold and marble fittings.
