  • Trump arrived at his golf club in Doral, just outside downtown Miami, on Monday.
  • Supporters gathered to express their outrage about the federal indictment.

DORAL, Florida — Former President Donald Trump flashed a thumbs up as he arrived at Trump National Doral on Monday, roughly 24 hours before he was set to appear in federal court.

The former president arrived with his motorcade as he prepared to hear his charges Tuesday in the Miami federal courthouse, located roughly 20 minutes from his golf club and resort. Trump is facing a 37-count federal indictment over classified material he kept after leaving the White House.

Roughly 40 Trump supporters gathered on a thin strip of sidewalk outside the Doral property to catch a glimpse of their political hero, telling Insider they believed him to be innocent. Thousands are expected in downtown Miami on Tuesday.

For now, Trump is huddling with his legal team as he prepares to plead "not guilty."
