Former president Donald calls for protest as he expects arrest over hush money scandal
Former President Donald Trump has called for his supporters to protest against his arrest, which he expects to happen on Tuesday, according to a social media post he made. The arrest is expected to be in connection with a hush money scheme involving adult film actress Stormy Daniels, though Trump did not provide details for his claims. The former president has been agitating for his base to support him as he believes an indictment would help him politically. If he is indicted, it would be the first time in US history for a former president. Trump’s team has been preparing for the next steps behind the scenes, and they expect negotiations with the district attorney’s office for an agreed-upon surrender date should an indictment occur. Trump’s call for a protest echoes his final days in office, culminating in the deadly January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.
