NYC battens down the hatches and NYPD prepares to mobilize 700 'disorder control' riot cops ahead of ex-president's possible arrest - as MAGA supporters descend on Trump Tower

The Big Apple is ready to batten down the hatches and mobilize 700 riot cops ahead of former President Donald Trump's anticipated arrest early this week.

State, city and federal law enforcement agencies have been meeting in recent weeks to discuss how to deal with expected widespread protests following Trump's arrest, as his supporters have already started descending on Trump Tower.

The New York Police Department is even considering stationing hundreds of riot cops, the Daily Beast reports, fearing that Trump's arrest may cause both MAGA conservatives and anti-Trump protesters to face off outside Manhattan Criminal Court as he is arraigned.

Trump is set to face criminal charges for $130,000 payments his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, paid to porn star Stormy Daniels towards the end of his 2016 campaign. Prosecutors say the payment violated campaign finance laws, and was made to silence Daniels about an affair she had with the mogul.

Several MAGA fans have now descended on Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in a brazen attempt to prevent his arrest.

NYPD deserves to get their collective asses kicked but good. I’m sick and tired of these F*cking Back the Blue Goons protecting BLM and Aunty Fa while coming down on Normal American Citizens.

They will show up because they want their retirement pay. Bought and paid for Goon Squad. NYPD Gastapo!

Trump has more class than that.

Rockefeller, for all his billions, didn't.

That's right. Even though the Communist/leftist in this country hate, destroy and physically attack our monuments, our flag, our holidays, our elections, our people, our institutions, our religion, the Constitution, white folk etc, we must stay peaceful, and have nice polite discussions with them. We must show them how nice we all are.

Many NYPD cops are big Trump supporters, who don’t reside in the city.

Big question: HOW do they plan to arrest Trump?

NYPD has no authority in Florida. They would have to ask Florida to arrest and extradite him.

Lol you are dreaming, paychecks and mortgages are more important than some politician not cutting their checks. Plus happy wife, happy life included (Based on NYC demos, not a lot of females go Repub).

An arrest is totally unnecessary. Trump would show up in court voluntarily. Bragg is causing a provocation.

Some of us are not lawyers. I had to look up UFAP. It means “unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.”

Trump may get arrested and booked. Then released on bail.

Or not released on bail if the judge feels he would incite riots.

How dafuq do New York clowns think they are going to arrest someone in Florida without Florida law enforcement participating? Under what authority?
