Donald Trump: Courthouse employees were ‘actually crying’ and saying ‘I’m sorry’ on day of my indictment

Speaking to Tucker Carlson on Fox News in an interview set to air Tuesday night, former President Donald Trump told the host that people “were actually crying” in the Manhattan courthouse as he was being arraigned on charges brought by Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg.

“They were incredible. When I went to the courthouse which is also a prison in a sense, they signed me in and I’ll tell you people were crying. People that work there. Professionally work there that have no problems putting in murderers and they see everybody. It’s a tough, tough place and they were crying. They were actually crying. They said I’m sorry,” Trump told Carlson.

Last Tuesday, Trump turned himself in to New York authorities and was arraigned on  34 counts related to allegedly falsifying business records to hide a hush-money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels.

Also in the interview, Trump looked ahead to the 2020 election and said that President Joe Biden is not up to the task of running again.

“I watch him just like you do. And I think it’s almost inappropriate for me to say it. I don’t see how it’s possible,” Trump said. “But there’s something wrong. I saw his answer today on television about whether or no he was going to run to a very nice guy named Al Roker. You can’t get a softer question than that. It was a long answer about the eggs and this and that, look I don’t think he can.”
