Former US President Donald Trump is the subject of four criminal cases and several civil suits. That means the presumptive Republican nominee will be spending a lot of time in courtrooms ahead of voting day in November.

The FT’s US legal and defence correspondent, Stefania Palma, and US managing editor, Peter Spiegel, join this week’s Swamp Notes to explain why.
