Two months into President Donald Trump's second term, I had expected to be embarrassed and outraged. But I'm not. I'm pleasantly surprised.

The article from Yahoo News discusses former President Donald Trump's reaction to his indictment on 37 federal charges related to the mishandling of classified documents. Instead of showing embarrassment or outrage, Trump has embraced the situation, using it to rally his supporters and fundraise. He has portrayed the legal actions against him as a "witch hunt" and a form of political persecution, which has not only energized his base but also led to a significant increase in donations to his campaign. Trump's approach has been to turn the legal challenges into a political advantage, with his campaign sending out numerous fundraising emails and even selling merchandise like T-shirts with his mugshot. This strategy has proven effective, as his campaign reported raising $6.6 million in the three days following the indictment, with a notable portion coming from first-time donors.
