This is the best summary I could come up with:
Federal prosecutors have charged him in connection with the Department of Justice's investigation into his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, as well as the case involving classified documents found at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida.
In New York City, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has charged Trump with falsifying business documents in connection to a hush money payment made to an adult film actress during his 2016 campaign.
Mulvaney outlined how Trump's legal woes could play out in an opinion piece published in The Hill Wednesday morning.
He continued: "He also struggles with the realization that one of his favorite half-jokes has been turned back on him in haunting fashion: it is always interesting, he has commented many times, how people can change their minds when they 'realize that they are going to be the bride of another prisoner very shortly.'"
He resigned from that post following the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, when Trump supporters violently tried to block certification of Biden's Electoral College victory.
In June, Mulvaney predicted that the chances Trump will face jail time are "pretty high."
