• Legal experts say Trump's team could raise a number of possible defenses.
• They could focus on the indictment, shred Michael Cohen, or beat the drum of political persecution.

Donald Trump became the first US president to face criminal charges this week after being indicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in connection to a $130,000 hush-money payment to the adult film star Stormy Daniels.
