What It Was Like at Donald Trump’s Arraignment
The line for reporters seeking to be in the courtroom for Donald J. Trump’s arraignment in Manhattan started forming at 2 p.m. on Monday, more than a day before the former president was scheduled to face a judge in a case centered on hush-money payments.
One of those who got in was Jonah Bromwich, a criminal justice correspondent for The Times.
He tells us what it was like inside the courthouse as Mr. Trump was charged with 34 felony counts.
Guest: Jonah E. Bromwich, a criminal justice correspondent for The New York Times.
Background reading:
- Trump pleaded not guilty, then sat quietly as lawyers sparred.
- The former president is accused of orchestrating a hush-money scheme to pave his path to the presidency and then covering it up from the White House.
