As Tuesday, April 3 draws closer by the hour, failed one-term, twice-impeached former president Donald Trump is undergoing wild mood swings, according to reporter Hugo Lowell of The Guardian.
Lowell was a guest on MSNBC Saturday and was asked by host Alex Witt, “I know a couple of weeks ago, you reported that Trump wanted to be handcuffed, wanted to make a spectacle of his arrest. Now that his arraignment is imminent, does he still want t be handcuffed in public? What are you hearing on that?”
Lowell replied:
Trump even wanted his hands behind his back, according to Lowell, which led Witt to remark, “Wait, wait he wanted his hands behind his back? We don’t even see that anymore, don’t we see people with the hands cuffed in front? So, he wanted to take the extra dramatic step to show himself, like, ‘oh, you know,’ … that’s strange.”
Lowell also noted, “No, he was very specific in that instruction and I think it kind of took his aides by the surprise. They did not anticipate this level of insistence from Trump. Certainly when he then said, you know, ‘I don’t care if it’s a security concern, I want to be a martyr,’ I think that solidified in that moment what Trump wanted. But when the indictment actually came down, his response was much more muted and, I think, it’s one thing to be talking about a potential indictment, but once you actually get hit with an indictment it is a completely different story.”
