Former President Donald Trump is unlikely to be handcuffed if he’s arrested, according to a Florida prosecutor who said the Secret Service wouldn’t “allow local law enforcement to put their hands on the former president.”

Trump said last week that he expects to be indicted by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Trump’s attorney, Joseph Tacopina, told Newsmax he expects police to handcuff Trump during an arrest.
“I had this idea in my head that they’d [prosecutors] be dumb enough — if he [Trump] were indicted — to actually try to cuff him and walk him. And then we can see how far we’ve really devolved in this country,” Tacopina said on “Rob Schmitt Tonight” on Monday. “I think that’s what they’re going to try to do.”
