I am asking here because all the political subs don’t allow a question, and US politics used to seemed so simple until to understand this man came along.

    I know this may be pedantic, but he was “arrested” the same day he was arraigned for the first three indictments (he will surrender later this week for the fourth one in Georgia). He just wasn’t handcuffed and isn’t being detained while he awaits trial. He was also booked at the courthouse instead of the police station.

      and isn’t being detained while he awaits trial

      I expect his secret service detail will act as an assurance that he won’t skip the country.
