Donald Trump claimed on Saturday that his arrest was imminent and issued an extraordinary call for his supporters to protest as a New York grand jury investigates hush money payments to women who alleged sexual encounters with the former president.
. Local law enforcement officials are bracing for the public safety ramifications of an unprecedented prosecution of a former American president.
A spokesperson and a lawyer for Trump said his Truth Social post was based on media reports rather than any actual update from, or communication with, prosecutors. The district attorney’s office declined to comment Saturday. The indictment of Trump, 76, would be an extraordinary development after years of investigations into his business, political and personal dealings. Though Trump may look to denounce the prosecution as a politically motivated effort to derail his 2024 bid for the White House, there’s no question that it would function as a campaign trail distraction and give fodder for opponents and critics tired of the legal scandals that have long shadowed him.
