But Bragg’s prosecutors have also accused Trump of undermining the integrity of the 2016 elections by orchestrating a scheme to purchase and suppress negative stories. Some anti-Trumpers had infiltrated the Trump side, and launched a highly successful attempt to silence the Georgia congresswoman. No one wailed, no one fell to their knees, there was just a low murmur as mumbles and expletives were uttered from underneath a sea of red Maga hats. And they asked for protective orders for discovery materials, including Trump’s escalatory posts on his platform Truth Social, such as when he vowed “death and destruction” in the event he was indicted. But another woman had a CNN live stream on her phone which showed Trump’s car was still en route to the court. The tabloid reached a $150,000 agreement with McDougal, purchasing the rights to her story in an effort to keep it from going public. Data on the laptop, which analysts and news media examined extensively, showed that Hunter tried to use his family name to his advantage, but did not show corruption on the part of Joe Biden. It was the final fall for a man who used to walk with kings, command the world’s most powerful military and casually threaten political opponents such as Hillary Clinton with jail. Its neat symbol came in the form of a characteristically fake image. Trump took classified documents to Mar-a-Lago, whereas former president Barack Obama turned over documents, according to the National Archives and Records Administration itself.

WATCH: Trump speaks at Mar-a-Lago after pleading 'not guilty' in ... (PBS NewsHour)

Flanked by American flags, former President Donald Trump delivered a campaign-style speech to cheering supporters at Mar-a-Lago Tuesday night.

That’s in part because some of the courthouse was cleared out for his arraignment and because Trump is a former president with Secret Service protection. His lawyers asked for him to be excused from attending the hearing in person because of the extraordinary security measures. But for Trump, it didn’t look like what it does in the movies or on TV’s “Law & Order.” They specifically pointed to posts Trump made that warned of “potential death and destruction” if he were to be indicted. Trump stayed mostly still, his hands steepled or interlaced, and looked ahead during the proceedings that lasted just over an hour. They were expected to have taken Trump’s fingerprints but were not believed to have taken a mug shot.

Trump Struggles to Defend Himself in Post-Arrest Mar-a-Lago Speech (Rolling Stone)

Donald Trump struggled to defend himself against looming indictments in a post-arrest speech from Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday.

Cutting his speech short after just half an hour, Trump seemed absorbed by the trauma of the day’s events. Trump entered his ballroom to the strains of Lee Greenwood’s “I’m Proud to be an American.” The crowd chanted “USA! Trump’s fixer in this case, his former attorney Michael Cohen, has already served federal prison time for his role in the scheme, and the new charging documents insist that Cohen acted at Trump’s explicit direction. He blasted the “local racist” prosecutor in Georgia who is investigating his election interference in that state. He also bashed the Manhattan DA who just indicted him, calling him the “radical-left George Soros-backed prosecutor Alvin Bragg.” (In an odd throwback to his impeachment over Ukraine, Trump characterized his haranguing of Georgia election officials as another “perfect phone call.”)

The former president appeared subdued in New York, only to return to his campaigning, inflammatory ways hours later in Florida.

He described the special counsel, Jack Smith, as a “lunatic” and complained: “Our justice system has become lawless. “This is the worst I’ve ever seen Trump,” he tweeted. “They’re looking at me through the Espionage Act of 1917, where the penalty is death,” he said.

He is accused of paying two former lovers and a "doorman" hush money. That's unless you are one of the major or Trump-friendly networks, who gets an allocated spot in the front row. He will attack the prosecutors, the judge, everyone involved in this prosecution. "Trump can't help himself. Since he first announced to the world that he was about to be indicted, he's sent organisations into a frenzy of coverage. The long wait to be in the room They're not even saying what you did." But Trump seemed to be incapable of censoring himself, claiming he has "a Trump-hating judge with a Trump-hating wife and Trump-hating family" presiding over his case. Trump was back in the sunny state within a few hours, with some words of warning echoing in his ears. "There is no case," he said to cheers from the crowd of several hundred super fans.
