Former President Donald Trump said Saturday he expects to be arrested in connection with the investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney next week and called for protests as a result.
In a social media post on Saturday, Trump, referring to himself, said the βleading Republican candidate and former president of the United States will be arrested on Tuesday of next week.β
βProtest, take our nation back,β he wrote.
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. The former president is expected to present himself in Manhattan following the formal charges and has expressed interest in making a speech after, though whether he ultimately does remains to be seen.
