Donald Trump is using his indictment to grab the political spotlight.
The former US President has been indicted by a grand jury and is expected to surrender early next week.
Trump has been under investigation for his alleged role in paying hush money to a porn star during the 2016 election.
Former BBC US correspondent and political analyst Nick Bryant told Andrew Dickens this might actually help Trump's 2024 election chances.
"His rivals for the Republican Presidential nomination in 2024 almost seem like bit-part players at the moment," he said.
"He not only has support of the MAGA faithful, but also senior Republicans in the party."
Bryant says the party is fully behind Donald Trump "for the moment."
