Politics Trump has been indicted by Mahattan Grand Jury
2023.03.30 17:03
Habba spoke to Fox News anchor Bret Baier on Thursday after Trump was indicted by a Manhattan grand jury.
"I found out frankly minutes before it broke that of the indictment, but I'm equally as shocked, I would say, as the rest of the world right now," she told Baier. "And just knowing the facts as I know them, based on comments to the press by people like Michael Cohen, who they're resting their case on, I think his sentiments are that this is a result of him leading in the polls, doing incredibly well."
Habba said that the Secret Service would be involved in Trump's surrender.
"Obviously, this is not a normal individual," she explained. "This is the first time in history that anybody has done this to a former president and candidate. So, there will be a lot of coordination with the DA and the security team for the president, as well as his attorney's panel in this case."
"And of course, yes, there would be, I wouldn't call it a surrender, but there's a process and an arraignment, just like anyone else would do," Habba added.

Haberman: Team Trump 'caught by surprise'
by Manhattan indictment

After a grand jury voted to indict Donald Trump Thursday, the former president’s next move will likely be to influence the court of public opinion, The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman said Thursday during an appearance on CNN’s "The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer."
Haberman said Team Trump is likely still digesting the news in Mar-a-Lago.
“They really were caught very much by surprise, by the fact that this happened,” Haberman said “I can't stress that enough.”
The next step for Trump’s legal team will be to arrange for a surrender, which isn’t a foregone conclusion despite his attorney Joe Tacopina promising that his client would do so should he be indicted, Haberman said.
“With Trump, you obviously never know,” Haberman said. “Surrendering any form is not something Donald Trump likes to do, let alone this one.”
But Haberman is fairly certain that Trump’s next move will be to influence public opinion.
“This is where we are going to go with this next, and that will I suspect happen in the coming days, and I think Trump will, you know, try to use the weekend to sway public opinion as much as possible,” Haberman said.
“That's his go to move, Wolf, it has been his go-to to move, it is to try to shape public opinion and use that to try to force events. He was trying it with what was essentially an intimidation campaign against (Manhattan District Attorney) Alvin Bragg in the last two weeks.
“Clearly, it did not work.”

Over 70% of Republican supporters believe that all accusations against Trump is a witch hunt
just as he claims. Over 90% of Democrats think that all on going trials against Trump is real.
Over 60% of independents believe it is not a witch hunt but legitimate trial.
So, GOP candidates cannot pass the primary unless one would follow Trump, but he
or she cannot win the election.
In general population. Trump followers are about 33%. They are almost indoctrinated by
extreme right's ideology. It makes America deeply divided country. I do not think
there is any hope that they will change. To the contrary, it may grow as the middle
class collapses.
It is an alarming situation when China challenges American dominance. Though U.S.
pursues the divide between Communist party of China and Chinese people, U.S. is
dividing by itself.
I am really disappointed by the judicial system of America because it is taking too
long to indict him on all charges against him. If it were to happen in China, it would
have been over in a year.
So far, China is winning!

브래그 맨해튼 지검장은 그간 한국 검찰의 관행과 달리 증거에 기반을 둔 신중함으로 기본을 지키고 있다. 그간 빨리 기소를 추진하자는 하급자들의 빗발치는 요구와 항의 사표 파동에도 그는 요지부동이었다. 길고 지루한 과정을 통해 단단한 증거가 확보되자 그는 비로소 움직였다. 사법적 절제와 적법한 절차에의 믿음이야말로 민주공화국의 기본 중 기본이다.
Glory to New Yorkers! I am proud of you guys over there.
Kudos to Alvin Bragg! You have done your job.
At one point in time, I thought he might get cold feet, intimidated by Trump and his followers.
But he pulled through well enough to indict Trump for the first time in this nation, the U.S.A.
Alvin, push on and on !! You are doing a great favor to us, Koreans as well.
I guess further indictments will follow from the rest of our nation in harmony with
what you have done today.
I think I can sleep better, knowing that there is a law in the land of the U.S.
I won't have to ride a boat or swim to South Korea. That is a hellish long way from where we are.
