Manhattan grand jury votes to indict Donald Trump

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with historic breaking news. For the first time in our country’s history, a former U.S. president is facing criminal charges. A Manhattan grand jury has voted to indict Donald Trump for his role in the hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels during his 2016 presidential campaign. This is the first time in history this has happened. Two sources familiar with the situation told NBC News that Trump’s attorneys have been notified that he has been indicted. The exact charges are unknown, because indictments are typically filed in court under seal after a grand jury’s vote in New York. The Manhattan district attorney was known to be focusing on a felony charge of falsifying business records. It is a charge that carries a maximum prison sentence of four years. Trump's attorney told NBC News that he is expected to surrender to the Manhattan DA's office early next week. Joy Reid and her expert guests bring you the latest details in this major developing story on The ReidOut on MSNBC.
