Former President Donald Trump has made headlines again with his latest social media post on his own platform, Truth Social. In a lengthy screed posted yesterday, Trump claimed that he knows the exact date he will be arrested.
Here’s what we know so far:
The Date Is Set
According to Trump, he will be arrested on July 4, 2023, in a “bogus, phony charge” orchestrated by the “deep state.”
“I know they’re planning to arrest me, but they won’t get away with it. I have always been a fighter, and I will not back down now,” Trump wrote.
Trump’s Posts on Truth Social
Since its launch earlier this year, Trump’s new social media platform, Truth Social, has been his preferred outlet for making statements and rallying his base. Before his latest post, Trump used Truth Social to level various claims against his political opponents, including President Joe Biden and Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
The Backstory
Rumors of Trump’s potential arrest have been circulating for years. Some observers have speculated that Trump could be facing charges related to the 2020 election or his business dealings. However, nothing has been confirmed.
What’s Next for Trump?
Trump’s post on Truth Social has garnered thousands of comments from his supporters, many of whom pledged to stand by him through any legal battles. Meanwhile, the announcement has drawn criticism from those who believe Trump is using the threat of arrest to stir up his base.
Only time will tell if Trump’s prediction will come to pass on July 4, 2023.
