Former President Trump on Tuesday suggested his criminal case over a payment made during the 2016 election cycle be moved from Manhattan to Staten Island.

“Very unfair venue, with some areas that voted 1 percent Republican. This case should be moved to nearby Staten Island ... would be a very fair and secure location for the trial,” Trump wrote in all-caps on Truth Social ahead of his slated arraignment.
