Trump Shrugs Off Possible Jail Sentence After ‘Scam’ Trial, Won’t ‘Beg’ For Leniency

Former President Donald Trump indicated that he would accept a harsh sentence after his conviction last week in a New York hush money trial that he has derided as a “scam” and refuses to employ a legal strategy in which he grovels for mercy.

“I’m okay with it,” Trump said when asked about the potential of house arrest or even jail during a “Fox & Friends Weekend” interview that aired on Sunday. “I saw one of my lawyers the other day on television saying, ‘Oh, no, you don’t want to do that to the president.’ I said, don’t, you know, beg for anything. It’s just the way it is.”
