Donald Trump speech: former President speaks to nation in Mar-a-Lago after arrest

Donald Trump has told supporters gathered at Mar-a-Lago that the case against him is "fake" and that America's justice system is "lawless".

Mr Trump faced a total of 34 felony charges of falsifying business records and pleaded not guilty to all of them during a historic 45-minute hearing in New York today.

Among the allegations was that he paid $30,000 to silence a doorman who claimed to have a story about a secret child fathered by the former president.
