Political Figures Weigh in on Potential Trump Arrest and Protests
TL;DR
Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) said that if former President Donald Trump is arrested for his involvement in possibly paying hush money during his 2016 presidential campaign, his supporters should be able to protest peacefully, but law enforcement officials should be prepared to prevent violence. Kelly acknowledged that charging a former president would be unprecedented, but emphasized that nobody is above the law and that the process would need to be worked out between Trump and his lawyers.
