Trump trial fans show up for 'spectacle' and 'to witness history'
A Scottish woman on vacation. A retiree carrying a Trump puppet. A 22-year-old film producer. A former criminal defence attorney.

Donald Trump has pleaded not guilty to falsifying business records in relation to a hush-money payment made to a porn star.
