Donald Trump said Tuesday it was "surreal" to be appearing in court, as he posted live updates on social media while being driven to face criminal charges in Manhattan.
"Heading to Lower Manhattan, the Courthouse. Seems so SURREAL — WOW, they are going to ARREST ME. Can't believe this is happening in America," he posted on his Truth Social platform.
The former US president pleaded not guilty as he appeared before the court after being arrested on charges of paying porn star Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about a sexual encounter between her and Trump in 2006.
