Donald Trump's been speaking for the first time since he pleaded not guilty to 34 criminal charges in a historic court appearance in New York.
He's accused of covering up payments from his lawyer in the lead up to the 2016 presidential election.
The former US President's alleged to have paid off a porn star, and Playboy model and a doorman who'd accused him of affairs and having a child out of wedlock.
A judge warned Mr Trump to avoid comments which could cause civil unrest.
He later addressed a crowd of supporters at his Mar a Lago estate in Florida.
'We are a nation in decline and now these radical left lunatics want to interfere with our elections by using law enforcement. We can't let that happen.'
