Donald Trump is arrested

This was reported by CNN.

It is expected that Trump's fingerprints will be taken during the arrest, but it is not known whether he will be photographed.

After that, Trump will be taken to the courtroom, where he will be charged.

Thus, Trump will become the first US president in history to face criminal charges.

Trump is not likely to be handcuffed, as he will remain under the constant protection of law enforcement.

Background.

In early 2018, The Wall Street Journal reported that Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen paid porn actress Stephanie Clifford (Stormy Daniels) $130,000 to keep quiet about an affair with Trump. The agreement was reached just before the 2016 presidential election.

Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison on charges of a number of crimes, including illegal spending of campaign funds. Some of the money was paid for the silence of model Karen McDougal and porn actress Stormy Daniels. 

Their statements could have compromised Trump before the election.

Cohen confirmed the payment, but said he did so on his own initiative and with his own funds. At the same time, Trump claimed that he did not ask his lawyer to break the law.

• Former US President Donald Trump expected to be arrested on March 21 and called on his supporters to protest.

• On March 31, a jury in a New York court indicted the former president on charges of involvement in a $130,000 hush money payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels.

• Trump reacted to the jury's decision to vote for criminal charges.

• On April 2, it became known that Trump's campaign had received more than $5 million in donations within two days of his indictment.

• On April 3, Trump flew to New York to appear in court.
