Donald Trump’s lawyer Joe Tacopina said he doesn’t believe the Manhattan District Attorney’s office’s case against the former president will make it to a jury.

“This case is going to fall on its merits, on legal challenges, well before we get to a jury, if we get to a jury,” Tacopina told NBC’s “Today” show on Wednesday morning, coming hours after Trump was indicted for 34 counts of falsifying business records. Trump pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
