Donald Trump arrives in New York of his surrender

Former US President Donald Trump arrived in New York. He will appear at the Manhattan courthouse in New York to surrender in the case of the former porn star. Donald Trump came to New York from Florida a day ago.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office launched an investigation into allegations that Trump gave Stormy "hush money". Stormi alleged that Trump bribed her to keep her mouth shut after having sex.

However, the former president has always denied the allegations leveled against him. He called the case "political persecution" and attacked Attorney Bragg as a "scandal." Trump predicted the decision would hurt Democrats in the 2024 election.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump met with his lawyers Susan Necheles and Joe Tacopina at Trump Tower after arriving in New York City on Monday. It is unclear whether Todd Blanch, a new member of Trump's legal team, attended the meeting.

Alina Habba, one of Trump's representatives, said after meeting with the former president in New York, he is fine and ready for what he has to do tomorrow (Tuesday).

Asked if Trump would get a fair trial in Manhattan, Alina said no. I think it is very difficult. I want to believe in this kingdom. But I've been working for him here for a couple of years and have been to court in New York. As far as I can tell, it's not like representing anyone else.

Acting New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Marchan said in an order Monday night that former President Trump's impeachment hearing had a media request to broadcast. But that is not possible. The judge will allow photographs to be taken of the hearing room for a short period of time. After that the hearing will begin.
