Trump claims he anticipates being detained on Tuesday as authorities in New York get ready for a potential charge. In an interview with Fox News on Friday, former US President Donald Trump claimed that an imminent arrest was being planned against him by the current administration. In response to the claim, some of Trump’s allies and rivals have come to his defense, stating that they believe such an arrest would be unfounded.

Former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany defended Trump on Twitter, saying that the arrest claim was “yet another baseless attack” against the former president. Republican Senator Lindsey Graham also came out in support of Trump, stating that he did not believe an arrest would be warranted.

However, some other politicians were critical of Trump’s claims. Democratic Senator Cory Booker stated that Trump’s remarks were “irresponsible” and that no one should be above the law. Meanwhile, Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger expressed concern that Trump’s comments were a sign of his continued attempts to undermine democracy.

It remains unclear what Trump’s specific concerns about a potential arrest may be, but the claim has stirred up controversy and raised questions about the ongoing legal and political implications of the former president’s actions while in office.
