Trump's Indictment Takes Center Stage in Legal and Political Arenas.

Former President Donald Trump has remained calm and focused in the days leading up to his arraignment, according to sources. He has spent time playing golf, posting on social media, and meeting with advisers to discuss how to use the indictment as a rallying cry for his 2024 campaign. Trump's team has presented him with polls showing him with a growing lead over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, his biggest 2024 rival, in a head-to-head match up. The team has also mulled using his mugshot on merchandise to raise money for the campaign. The campaign has already raised over $5 million in the 48 hours following the indictment.
