The March 18 announcement by former president Donald J. Trump that his arrest was imminent has proven to be perhaps a little hasty. Yet he once again managed to hustle the press and own the news cycle, touching off a media storm that likely won't die down until he is indicted, or the case is dropped. Either way, the situation has already become an international embarrassment.
It is unclear whether Trump's faulty prediction of his arrest last week was the result of some bad information or a just compulsion to whip up his fans. But the media circus on Center Street in downtown New York, where a grand jury is hearing from witnesses in a hush money case against Trump, has already reached cinematic proportions, with protesters and journalists alike jostling for a closer look.
