His heinous is doing just what one might expect under the circumstances, consulting with his attorneys…

Several sources close to former President Donald Trump say he is currently huddling at his private club at Mar-a-Lago and meeting with his team, including his lawyers and senior advisers from his campaign operation, as he awaits a possible indictment in New York City.

Trump's team has been planning since last week for an aggressive public relations push and has added more personnel including some other key players involved in other Trump-related investigations into the mix, as first reported by The New York Times. The Trump operation will also supply surrogates for counter messaging.

While Trump is currently using his potential indictment for fundraising and political advantage, it's an issue that may divide Republicans. He has a base that will continue to support him in the face of any criminal charge against him, but for others who approve of his policies, it would be a reminder that there may be other candidates in the party who don't face the same kinds of legal challenges.
When you surround yourself with sycophants this is what public relations looks like...
Almost everybody? Okay, he’s got at least one lawyer giving it to him straight...

Behind the gilded doors of Mar-a-Lago, former President Donald Trump has toyed with the idea of creating a media spectacle around his potential indictment, both celebrated how it will help him politically and complained about how “unfair” it is, and at times ignored the prospect of criminal charges altogether, sources close to him told CNN.
Two advisers said that the former president appears to have resigned himself to the likelihood of an indictment, with one close adviser calling his perceived distancing from the matter “compartmentalization.”

“[Trump] knows it’s happening. We’ve all moved on to ‘OK, this is happening, how do we deal with it?’” one Trump adviser said.

“We’re planning for what we can: What does he say and when?” another adviser told CNN. “There’s not a lot we can really plan for right now.”
I’d imagine not...
