According to Trump, he is innocent of paying hush money

Donald Trump pleaded not guilty on Tuesday to 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree related to hush money payments at the end of his 2016 presidential campaign. This is the first time that a former president has had to say that they are not guilty of a crime.

During a short hearing, interim Judge Juan Merchan told the public about the charges.

Trump drove a motorcade that looked like the presidential convoy to the courthouse at 100 Centre Street in Lower Manhattan. He spent the night at Trump Tower in Midtown. Before his arraignment, he was told he was under arrest, had his fingerprints taken, and was taken care of.

“That feels so IMPOSSIBLE—WOW, I’m going to get ARRESTED!”

Can’t believe this is occurring in the United States “When he approached the courthouse, Trump stated in a post on his social media site Truth Social that was published as he was leaving.

The legal issues, media spectacle, and porn-star-hush-money salaciousness at the center of the case constitute a fresh chapter in the career of the New York tycoon-turned-TV-star-turned-politician, whose career has veered from controversy to success over the course of four decades. This time, unlike when his casinos failed or his marriages fell apart, many of Trump’s followers and opponents believe the fate of American democracy is at stake. They say this because the former president increasingly attributes his legal issues to unlawful efforts to prevent him from running for office again.

What the Authorities say:

Authorities were still considering the severity of the January 6 violence at the U.S. Capitol, so security was tight at the courthouse and in the surrounding neighborhood. Because this was the first time an ex-president had ever been accused, the police, court staff, and Secret Service were prepared for protests.

While police blocked off streets and a helicopter hovered overhead, television crews from all over the world put up cameras near the lengthy lines of people hoping to witness the spectacle. Significantly, some individuals camped out overnight in an attempt to obtain a seat inside the venue.

The courtroom is off-limits to television cameras, but the judge has decided to allow photographers inside. These photographers will capture images that will likely appear in future newspapers, political advertisements, and history books.

“I believe the world will soon end. It seems unreal to me,” Trump attorney Joe Tacopina said on Fox News on Monday.

“Acquit oneself”

Trump stated last month that if he were to be detained, there should be “protests.” Afterward, he escalated his language and claimed that if he were charged, “possible death and destruction” would ensue. He continued to publish criticisms of the prosecutor overnight on Truth Social.
