Donald Trump has announced that he will surrender to law enforcement on Thursday in Atlanta, where will be arrested and processed for crimes connected to his Jan. 6 coup attempt. A bond amount of 200,000 dollars has been set for the ex-president. On Tuesday, Trump "joked" on his Truth Social disinformation platform that perhaps he was going to flee to Russia and seek refuge with Vladimir Putin.
Trump has also been lashing out, lying and raging at the prosecutors, special counsel Jack Smith, President Joe Biden, the "deep state" and various other "enemies" as he shows (more) signs of publicly decompensating and manifesting impotent rage at not being able to fully control his destiny. For many pro-democracy Americans and other people who want Trump removed from public life, these indictments and the ex-president's unstable behavior are something to be happy about because they are seen as evidence that he is weakening and shaken. It is a sign that the country is one step closer to escaping the Age of Trump and all the troubles it has unleashed.
