"Trump Braces for Possible Arrest and Protests"

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump called on his supporters to protest and "take our nation back" as he anticipates an effort by the Manhattan district attorney to bring an unprecedented criminal charge over his handling of a hush money payment during his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump provided no clear basis for his expected arrest, beyond citing what he called "illegal leaks" about the ongoing investigation by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. It's unclear if Trump's legal team has informed him of an impending indictment or whether he's speculating based on news coverage.
