Ex-President Donald Trump said in a social media post that he expects to be arrested Tuesday as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is eyeing charges in a case examining hush money paid to women who alleged sexual encounters with the former president.
Trump provided no evidence that suggested he was directly informed of a pending arrest and did not say how he knew of such plans.
Trump said in a post on his “Truth” social network early Saturday that “illegal leaks” from the Manhattan district attorney’s office indicated, in all caps, that “THE FAR & AWAY LEADING REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE & FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, WILL BE ARRESTED ON TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK.”
