Americanswers! More legal trouble for Trump... And why did RFK Jr drop out?
We answer your questions on the biggest issues in the run-up to the election.

RFK Jr has officially dropped out of the race for the White House after a campaign which at one point saw him polling in double digits. How will his withdrawal affect the race?
And, it鈥檚 been confirmed that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will do an interview with CNN this week. Why are Democrats nervous about Harris鈥檚 first interview as a presidential candidate?
