  • Trump's arrest and call for protests have raised concerns about potential political violence. This article examines the reactions among Trump supporters and allies, as well as the preparations made by security officials. House Speaker McCarthy, Senator Ted Cruz, and Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene have criticized the arrest as a weaponization of government or a frivolous charge, while a CNN poll shows that 60% of Americans approve of the indictment. However, Trump still holds a strong base of support, with 72% of Republicans having a favorable opinion of him. The Trump campaign has also reported raising $10 million since the news of his indictment. While there were demonstrations outside the courthouse, experts believe that violence is not likely to occur. The article delves into the concerns surrounding Trump's use of this event to rally his supporters.
  • Subtitles section
  • >> Thank you.
  • Geoff: We are going to focus now on how Mr. Trump's calls for protest regarding his arrest have sparked concerns about the possibility of fresh political violence.
  • Laura barron-lopez joins us now to discuss how security officials are monitoring and preparing for a host of threats.
  • Thank you for being here.
  • I know you spent the day tracking reaction to today's developments among Mr. Trump supporters, allies.
  • What have you found?
  • Laura: A number of those who support the president, house speaker Mccarthy called this a weaponization of government.
  • Ted Cruz called it a frivolous charge.
  • Marjorie Taylor Greene said that she and other Republicans will never abandon the president.
  • So, there is still a lot of rallying around the former president.
  • I want to also highlight some of the recent polling that dropped after the indictment.
  • A CNN poll showed 60% of Americans approve the indictment.
  • 40% disapprove.
  • When it comes to Republicans' opinion of trump, 72% have high favorable of trump.
  • He's very much still has a grasp on that base.
  • Another data point is that the trump campaign says they have fun raised some $10 million since the news of his indictment.
  • Geoff: As we reported, Donald Trump supporters and anti-Trump protesters swarmed the streets outside the courthouse today.
  • That was a spectacle.
  • Beyond that, there are real concerns about the net effect of Donald Trump using this arrest and arraignment to rile up his supporters.
  • You have been speaking to extremists, experts about that.
  • Laura: The experts I have been speaking to say it is not necessarily that they are looking at violence to break out at a protest like the one that was held today.
  • They are looking at right wing extremist group, neonazis, the coordinated movement that has mobilized in the trump era.
  • I spoke to a historian at northwestern university.
  • An expert in the white power movement and she offered this warning.
  • >> What we have here with the indictment is an opportunity for extremists who are interested not in any kind of americanism, but instead are interested in overthrowing the United States to create a white ethno-state.
  • This gives those folks an opportunity to reach into the trump base, to find people who are frustrated and disaffected by this ruling, and to recruit and radicalize for their own purposes.
  • Laura: You heard her say that essentially, the indictment, the arrest, the subsequent revelation of the charges all connect as a triggering action for extremist groups.
  • Geoff: There are people who argue that Donald Trump's influence is waning despite his sizable command over a certain part of the Republican base.
  • He does not draw the same big crowds.
  • He does not use Twitter in the way he used to.
  • Does that lessen the prospects for political violence?
  • Laura: I asked Kathleen exactly about this and whether or not his influence was waning and she essentially said trump is still seen as a figurehead for the militant and white power groups, but it goes beyond him.
  • >> This is a movement that organizes in cells and that uses any open window for what it attempts to do.
  • Even if his crowd attendance is waning, even if the mainstream part of his movement is waning, the continued call-outs to extremists are still there.
  • And we're not talking about a group of people that needs a large number in order to effectively mobilize violence.
  • Laura: When she talked about the potential for militant groups to take action or is so-called lone wolf, essentially they are looking at the upcoming Oklahoma City bombing anniversary on April 19.
  • They say what people should be on the watch for our potential attacks on federal buildings, on power stations and other paramilitary activity.
  • Geoff: What does the online chatter suggest?
  • We know that extremists were very active on social media in advance of the January 6 attack.
  • What are the expert saying about that?
  • Laura: I spoke to Collin Clark, a senior researcher at the center that tracks extremism.
  • He is looking at websites like telegram, gab, and other all right sites.
  • He told me in the last 24 to 48 hours, there has been more volume, vitriol, and language like take our country back.
  • He also said especially on telegram, what it is reminding him of his the frenzy, the social media storm that occurred after the FBI raided mar-a-lago.
  • And then when we saw in
