Former US President Donald Trump's impersonator Neil Greenfield gestures outside Trump Tower in New York City on March 22, 2023. AFPPIX: Donald Trump created a “false expectation” of his imminent arrest, the New York prosecutor investigating the ex-president over hush money said yesterday, as tensions build over a possible indictment.
The Republicans – who are all chairmen of House committees – accused Bragg, a Democrat, of waging a “politically motivated prosecution” in their letter dated Monday. “The letter only came after Donald Trump created a false expectation that he would be arrested the next day and his lawyers reportedly urged you to intervene. Neither fact is a legitimate basis for a congressional inquiry,” she added.
He would become the first former or sitting president to ever be charged with a crime if the grand jury, a panel of citizens convened by Bragg, decides to indict. The payment was allegedly made to stop her from going public about a liaison she says she had with Trump years earlier.Trump’s ex-lawyer-turned-adversary Michael Cohen says he made the payment on his then-boss’ behalf and was later reimbursed.
Legal analysts say that argument is untested and would be difficult to prove in court. Any jail time is far from certain.
