Donald Trump on Monday demanded that the Manhattan district attorney should “indict himself” after details of the former president’s indictment were leaked “illegally”. The one-time president will face 34 felony charges for falsification of business records in connection to hush money payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, according to a report by Yahoo News.

“I know the reporter and so, unfortunately, does he. This means that he MUST BE IMMEDIATELY INDICTED.
