Trump's legal team has said that he plans to mount a legal challenge to the charges, but in the case that he loses, he could face time behind bars. Speculations that Trump will end up in prison have raised questions about whether Secret Service agents will follow him there.
Under the Former Presidents Act, which was signed into law in 1958, all living former presidents are entitled to receive lifetime Secret Service protection unless they decline protection. For example, Richard Nixon relinquished his protection in 1985—a year after his wife, former First Lady Pat Nixon made the decision to drop hers. He remains the only president to do so.
A Secret Service agent walks outside the Mar-a-Lago Club, home of former President Donald Trump, in Palm Beach, Florida, on April 2, 2023. Trump is expected to surrender to the authorities in New York, on April 4, 2023, to face charges over a hush money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels.One unnamed former official told Business Insider that while there wouldn't be protective detail inside a cell with Trump, it's likely there would be at least one agent on the property.
The spouses and children of former presidents also retain Secret Service protection after a presidency, with spouses remaining protected unless they re-marry and children remaining protected until the age of 16. Unlesspasses a law amending the federal law, even incarcerated former presidents and first ladies would continue to receive protective detail.
For example, under the Clinton administration, Congress passed a law that reduced lifetime protections for former presidents to 10 years after leaving the White House. It was changed back during the Obama administration.
Ya notice that the protesters bosses have told them that they’ll now lose their jobs. Probably explains why the ‘crowds’😂are so thin. Why do you think the protesters numbers are so low? Luv to know.
Feds
The six finger mob.
A. . . . if they are FOR trump, they are SUPPORTERS not PROTESTERS!!!!
And yet Trump doesn't care about them.
Shoutout to these cool ass Asian Americans.
Good for you. Trump going to pay for his crimes.
Congratulations Donald- you did it again, first President to be indicted ever! You beat your own record of 2020 - got COVID19 got impeached twice and In just four years, you cost the Republican Party the House, the Senate, and the presidency. That’s a record success 🎊🕺🏽🎊🥂
Unemployed?
MAGAmorons
Trump´s followers don´t remember why they support him...
Hey Jim just do the job you were put in for instead of crying like a trump enabler
I believe Trump was given the opportunity to be arraigned over Zoom, but instead chose to fly to NYC, spend the night at Trump Tower, and be arraigned in person in NYC. He is making a spectacle of this. Collecting donations.
Dam, that’s loud 😵💫
Did those people take off work You can be pro or anti Trump. What a waste of time and life to stand out there and yell. It has zero effect on what will happen. You all could do charity--donate time or $. Instead, you stand there?!
Liz Cheney for President. Bring integrity back to the GOP!
The people holding the Rainbow flag are NOT real members of the LGBT+ community.
Are all the people in prison going to light toilet paper on fire and drop it from the windows like in the movies? Lol.
so basically we should expect a Ray Epps guided insurrection any moment
Cult
Someone please tell those protesters they can go into Trump Tower & ride the same escalator that their leader did. They can also get merch, browse & use the bathrooms. And let them know how honored their leader would be if they smeared feces on the floor.
My president ❤️ we are with you. Stay 💪
Sounds a lot like “we love hump”
idiots
Do these people have jobs or just taking a sick day? MAGACult
Think Secret Service guys signed up for prison duty?
At least his detail won’t cost nearly as much.
And when he bends over for the soap ...
There's secret presidential suite prison in Montana
I bet not many would volunteer for that detail 😂
It shouldn’t. They wouldn’t deserve it anymore.
Be funny if Secret Service arrested Bragg
