Introduction

This is Cienin's continuing coverage of the arrest and arraignment of Donald Trump. The first time that a former president of the United States has been arrested and arraigned, this time on 37 federal counts of allegedly mishandling classified documents. In typical fashion, Donald Trump is downplaying the severity of those charges that Abby mentioned against him, calling them fabricated and quote, an evil and heinous abuse of power. Returning tonight to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, he held a campaign fundraiser and addressed his cheering supporters with a litany of lies against his perceived enemies.
