"I don't even think about it," Trump, who has been indicted four times this year, said when asked if he worries about prison at night. NBC News has also extended an invitation to President Joe Biden to sit down with Welker for an interview. "First of all, I had very little to do with Jan. 6," Trump said. The officer didn't say that "because of riots," Trump said, alluding to the threat to a president. Welker asked Trump to confirm he was disputing Hutchinson's account.

That was when Kelly, then a Fox News star, infuriated the future president at a GOP debate with a question about his treatment of women. “That was a bad question,” Trump said in the interview. “That was a great question,” Kelly responded. “It's not that I'm worried that somebody is going to shoot me down,” Kelly later said in an interview with CBS News. You're going to bore the people at home and you're going to waste valuable time.”The goal of the interview was not to emerge with Trump's jugular, she said.

Former President Donald Trump's 2024 campaign said Wednesday that it has raised $6.6 million since news of his federal indictment broke, including more than $4.5 million online. In an announcement, the campaign said an additional $2.1 million came in at a pre-planned fundraiser Tuesday night at Trump's Bedminster golf course in New Jersey. Altogether, that's a bit more than half of the $12 million Trump's campaign previously announced raising in the six days following the news in late March that he had been indicted in New York City. That indictment alleged that Trump violated New York state law when paying an adult film actress to stay quiet about an alleged affair. Trump's campaign has sent out numerous fundraising emails asking for donations since he revealed that he had been indicted again.

June 14 (Reuters) - Former President Donald Trump's 2024 White House campaign said on Wednesday he had raised $7 million since being indicted on federal charges last week, as his message of political persecution continues to resonate with die-hard supporters. "President Trump Raises Over $6.6 Million and Counting Since Deranged Jack Smith Announced Political Prosecution," Trump's campaign wrote in an email to supporters on Wednesday, referring to the U.S. special counsel investigating him. Over $4.5 million came from digital fundraising while $2.1 million was raised from a donor event on Tuesday at Trump's Bedminster Club in New Jersey. After word emerged in March that Trump was going to be charged, his campaign raised $7 million in three days, according to senior adviser Jason Miller. Trump's nearest rival, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, has a roughly $85 million political war chest, currently held in a state account.
