Donald Trump hush money case LIVE updates: Trump to surrender in courtroom, New York braces for protests

Donald Trump wrote on his social networking web site, Truth Social, that he wants his trial to be moved from Manhattan to Staten Island. The Republican said Manhattan is a “very unfair venue”.

“The highly partisan judge and his family are well-known Trump haters. He was an unfair disaster in a previous Trump related case, wouldn’t recuse, gave horrible jury instructions and impossible to deal with during the witch hunt trial,” Trump wrote hours sooner than his arrest.
