Trump Reportedly Tells Aides He Wants to be Handcuffed, Perp-walked to His Possible Arraignment

The grand jury that will vote out an indictment on Donald Trump — or not — isn’t sitting today, delaying DA Alvin Bragg’s big moment in the sun of getting to arrest the former president.

Trump has reportedly told aides that as long as he’s going to be arrested and processed, he may as well make a “spectacle” of the event. He has allegedly made it known to several aides that he wants to be handcuffed and perp-walked into the courthouse. Trump believes that refusing special treatment — a “remote” surrender or him arriving at the courthouse surreptitiously — would show strength and defiance.

That may be. But the Secret Service insists that Trump take a safer route to his arraignment — one that doesn’t involve a showy pageant and media circus.

The Guardian:

Trump’s legal team in the hush money case has recoiled at the idea of him going in person and recommended that Trump allow them [sic] to quietly turn himself in next week and schedule a remote appearance, even citing guidance from his Secret Service detail about potential security concerns.

But Trump has rejected that approach and told various allies over the weekend that he didn’t care if someone shot him – he would become “a martyr”. He later added that if he got shot, he would probably win the presidency in 2024, the sources said.

Alvin Bragg has it in his power to refuse to handcuff and perp-walk Trump into the courthouse. And if he had an ounce of common sense, that’s exactly what he’d do. Trump probably knows that Bragg wouldn’t dare treat him the way the rabid, frothing left would love to see him treated — hog-tied, gagged, and taken to jail. Nevertheless, Trump will somehow find a way to make his ...more

Many years ago, the daughter of a friend got into trouble. They flew her home. She was in handcuffs. The cops were going to take them off. The father said no....that's part of the lesson she needs to learn.

His wife had died a few years earlier and there were eight children. He never remarried and raised them and in the end, they all turned out good. He was quite a guy.

Susan B. Anthony insisted on being handcuffed while doing the perp walk.

And remember...no black women were allowed to join their group.

“The father said no....that’s part of the lesson she needs to learn.”
That sounds like our parents.
When my older brother got arrested for DUI and had to be held 24 hrs before release, the desk sergeant asked if they wanted him to be put in a cell by himself. They said no, he needs to learn his lesson about drunk driving.
The sergeant put him in a cell with a drunk going through DTs but kept an eye on him through out the night.

It was a lesson he never forgot.

This was the far, far left Guardian, without a named source.

Didn't happen.

PDJT isn't stupid.

The media and Dems would probably call this voluntary “perp walk” a mockery of the rule of law, but in reality he would be mocking the miscarriage of justice.
