The 45th president of the United States of America — and the leading Republican contender to win back the White House in 2024 — may or may not be arrested today or tomorrow.
According to his former-lawyer-turned-legal-nemesis Michael Cohen, Donald Trump should escape the indignity of handcuffs but could well be ‘fingerprinted, swabbed [and] mugshotted.’ Cohen insists he doesn’t want to see images of Trump doing a ‘perp walk’ because, he says, ‘he respects the institution of the presidency.’
Trump may despise Stormy Daniels, but he would surely respect the hustle
Cohen, a convict himself, is hardly the most credible source. But because he’s a witness against Donald Trump, the media and, it seems, the Democratic Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, still take him seriously.
Trump denies having an affair with, as he calls her, ‘Stormy Horseface Daniels’ and any wrongdoing over payments to her or another woman, Karen McDougal. The whole Daniels saga is a strange one: the Southern District of New York used to call it the ‘zombie’ case.
