Former President Donald Trump was accompanied by his glamorous aide, Margo Martin, as his hush money criminal trial got underway yesterday.
Martin, 28, serves as Trump’s deputy communications chief and has been compared to his wife Melania Trump. She confidently walked into the New York courtroom alongside Trump, dressed in a black pantsuit. In the courtroom, she observed as more than half of the potential jurors were dismissed due to their inability to remain impartial.
Both Trump and Martin were present at the Manhattan court on Monday for the jury selection process. Trump is accused of concealing payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels to cover up an alleged affair. The trial’s start marked the first time a former president has faced a criminal trial.
While Trump remains the primary focus of the trial, Martin is cultivating a following of her own on social media. She shares her experiences working with a prominent political figure, highlighting her luxurious lifestyle and travels. Often seen at various events with Trump, including parties at his Florida Mar-a-Lago estate, Martin keeps her 29,000 Instagram followers updated with photos of fine dining, celebrity events, and travels on Trump’s private plane.
