The sidewalks are black with people and the police present by the dozens this Tuesday, April 4 in New York. The excitement is great near the Manhattan court for the appearance of Donald Trump, who will become the first former president of the United States to appear in court. The Republican billionaire is summoned to a criminal court to be served with his indictment in a case of fraud linked to money paid in 2016 to a porn star.
This procedure, which should take between two and four hours, takes place under high tension. Outside, on the square facing the court, his supporters and his opponents face each other while throwing a few insults at each other. The situation remains calm, however, the square having been separated into two parts by barriers. When an anti-Trump comes to wave a sign in front of a pro-Trump, he is quickly dismissed by the police.

TRUMP – The underside of his appearance on Tuesday April 4
00:02:46
Donald Trump will be photographed full-face and in profile
The former president will therefore be registered with his name, date of birth, height and weight. In the meantime, everything will be frozen in court and ongoing cases suspended. A face and profile identity photo will be taken, the famous “mugshot”, which we do not yet know if it will be released in the coming days. Once the formalities are completed, Donald Trump will pass a few corridors where he should be filmed before knowing the charges and what he risks.
The former president has already planned to give a press conference on Tuesday evening, in his stronghold in Florida, after his appearance in court in Manhattan.
