Donald Trump has publicly claimed to be undeterred by the 37 federal charges he was recently indicted with, calling the matter a "hoax" and proclaiming to have drawn in millions in campaign funding since.
The former president, who was arraigned in Florida on Tuesday, pled not guilty to all charges relating to the alleged mishandling of multiple classified documents after he left the White House.
In the days since his indictment, his campaign said they had managed to raise $6.6 million "and counting" for his presidential reelection bid. Trump spokesperson Liz Harrington later told Newsweek via email that the total had climbed to more than $7 million.
Despite the bravado, the former president has also shared anxieties about the sentence he could face if convicted, claiming centuries of punishment may await him.
