For the third time this year, the 45th President of the United States has been arraigned

on felony charges this time for alleged crimes against democracy itself, good evening in New

York and Anderson Cooper alone with Jake Tapper in Washington.

When Anderson, unlike the first two arrangements in New York and Florida, this one was held

within view of the crime scene, the U.S. Capitol, at a federal courthouse where dozens of members

of the violent mob that he even cited, that he, incited hundreds really, have already

been convicted and sentenced to prison.

The actual proceedings which were led by Magistrate Judge took 27 minutes.

The former President pled not guilty to four counts connected to his attempt to overturn

the election that he lost.

His next court date set for the 28th in front of the trial judge, Tonya Chutkin, who

was expected to set a trial date.

Now, a short time later after the sentencing on the tarmac at Reagan National Airport holding

in umbrella handed to him by his body man and documents case, co-defendant Walhtnada,

Mr. Trump made the following remarks starting with a slur about the nation's Capitol.

This is a very sad day for America and it was also very sad driving through Washington,

D.C. and seeing the filth and the decay and all of the broken buildings and walls and

the graffiti.

This is not the place that I left.

It's a very sad thing to see it.

When you look at what's happening, this is a persecution of a political opponent.

This was never supposed to happen in America.
