JUST IN: Trump says he expects to be arrested Tuesday, calls on supporters to protest | via CNN
In a social media post on Saturday, Trump, referring to himself, said the"leading Republican candidate and former president of the United States will be arrested on Tuesday of next week."While Trump offered no details on why he expects to be indicted, his legal team has been anticipating that it will happen soon and has been preparing behind the scenes for the next steps.
Trump has complained privately that he believes he is only going to being indicted because he thinks Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg"hates him," according to a source familiar with what Trump has said. Some of Trump's advisers had urged him privately not to call for protests, concerned about the optics of a mass protest in the streets of Manhattan growing out of control or resembling the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.
CNN previously reported that meetings have been going on throughout the week between city, state and federal law enforcement agencies in New York City about how to prepare for a possible indictment of Trump.
