New York is, of course, no stranger to high-profile events - but the arraignment of Donald Trump will be like nothing it's seen before. 🔎 Analysis by Simon Marks
where the former president’s first formal appearance is scheduled. On Monday, a large phalanx of agents
is expected to accompany Trump as he departs his Mar-A-Lago estate in Florida and travels to New York City.
The charges have placed Trump’s rivals in a delicate position. They know the case is far from certain to secure a conviction,Trump’s claims to be the victim of political and judicial persecution are aided by the tabloid nature of the allegations that he’s facing. The financial recording of hush money payments to an alleged mistress may prove to be illegal, but they’re nowhere near as serious asthat could – within weeks – yield far more substantive charges.
Presidential hopefuls including former Vice-President Mike Pence, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and South Carolina Senator Tim Scott know those more serious investigations have – for now – been eclipsed by the Manhattan District Attorney’s move. Even if Trump can be knocked off his perch, every Republican presidential aspirant knows there can be no successful path to the White House without securing the eventual backing of the former President and his loyalists.
