Trump: “They will arrest me on Tuesday, protest”, a new Capitol Hill is feared

The assault on Capitol Hill evidently taught him nothing. This afternoon (morning in the US) Donald Trump has made a series of posts on his personal social network, Truth, which are causing a lot of concern across the country. “They'll arrest me on Tuesday protest, take back the nation,” announced the former president. Soon after he attacked the Manhattan District Attorney who is investigating him for the Stormy Daniels case. According to the allegations, Trump would have paid the former porn star $ 130 in black money to prevent her from revealing that she had an affair with him. For now, according to US media, it seems likely that the tycoon will be indicted, but there is no certainty about his possible arrest. In any case, he reassured his lawyer, Joe Tacopina "will turn himself over to the authorities without complications if he is indicted". 

Trump's posts

“Illegal leaks from the corrupt and politicized New York attorney's office indicate, with no proven crime, that the Republican candidate and former US president will be arrested on Tuesday of next week. Let's demonstrate, let's take back the country“, wrote Trump on his social Truth, defining the “dead American dream”.

“Anarchists of the radical left have stole the elections and the heart of our country. Crime and inflation are destroying our way of life,” she continued.

He also took the field to support him the Speaker of the House, Republican Kevin McCarthy: “Here we go again. A scandalous abuse of power by a radical attorney's office that lets violent criminals go free and instead pursues a political vendetta against Donald Trump. McCarthy also announced that he will ask "relevant" House committees to immediately investigate whether "federal funds have been used to subvert our democracy by interfering in elections with a politically motivated process." 

Danger new Capitol Hill

Trump's broken posts immediately brought to mind what happened on January 6 2 years ago on Capitol Hill. The last time he asked his supporters to "take back the national team", they had stormed the US Capitol in order to prevent the certification of Joe Biden's victory in the November 2020 elections. “Big protest in Washington on January 6th. Be present, it will be crazy ”, he tweeted on that occasion, to then invite his supporters to“ fight like hell ”.
