  • An April 15 date has now been set for Trump's first criminal trial, his Manhattan hush-money case.
  • At a pretrial hearing Monday, Trump watched as his lawyer asked for a long delay.
  • "It's odd that we're even here," the judge told the lawyer, calling his delay bid unsupported.

Donald Trump's lawyer asked a Manhattan judge on Monday to postpone his hush-money trial — but instead of a delay, the lawyer got a verbal drubbing.
