Donald Trump’s Arraignment

[Bayan]

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 (https://www.nytimes.com/by/jonah-e-bromwich), a criminal justice correspondent for The New York Times.
