Former US President Donald Trump Claims He May be Arrested Over Hush Money Payment
19 March 2023
Former US President Donald Trump has claimed that he may be arrested on Tuesday, as prosecutors in New York investigate hush money payments to a porn star. Trump called on his supporters to protest, alleging "illegal leaks" from the "corrupt" Manhattan district attorney's office. However, a spokesman for Trump said that the former president had not been informed of any arrest. Despite providing no evidence, Trump claimed that he was the "far & away leading Republican candidate" for the 2024 presidential race. If Trump is charged, he would be the first US president to face criminal charges while out of office.
