MANHATTEN, New York — On a historic day in American history, former president Donald J. Trump turned himself into authorities following his recent indictment.
The newly released court documents reveal 34 felony charges related to the falsifying of business records.
Trump was arraigned this afternoon in a Manhattan courtroom, where he stood before the judge and pled not guilty.
Trump, sources within the courtroom said, was stoic and emotionless.
Trump announced that he would be delivering public remarks later tonight from his lavish Mar-a-Lago home in Florida. It remains to be seen what Trump will say, but many are speculating that he will use the opportunity to lash out at his critics and assert his innocence.
The implications of these charges are enormous, both for Trump and for the Republican Party as a whole. Many fear that this could be the final nail in the coffin of Trump’s political career, while others worry that the criminal case could drag down the entire GOP.
As the country waits to see how this dramatic saga will play out, one thing is clear: the world of American politics will never be the same again.
