Trump is days away from the start of the first trial out of the four criminal cases against him, while electioneering for the presidency. The New York trial, set to start on April 15 with jury selection, concerns a 2016 payment allegedly made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

Two-thirds of independents also deemed the charges serious.  64% of registered voters described the charges as at least “somewhat serious,” according to Reuters/Ipsos poll data published Wednesday. 34% said the charges lacked seriousness. The rest were unsure or didn’t answer.
