Dueling hearings in former President Trump’s criminal cases Thursday are set to create a blockbuster, split-screen moment in his quest to fight a cascade of legal battles.

The simultaneous hearings in two of his four indictments mark the latest display of Trump’s legal woes colliding.
With the possibility that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) could testify herself in Georgia, Trump was reportedly mulling attending the hearing, which would have been the first time the former president appeared in the Atlanta courthouse for that case.
