Despite decades of self-promotion and attention-seeking, former President Donald J. Trump had not been relishing every moment leading up to his arraignment on Tuesday in a Manhattan courthouse. He had been frustrated to find himself at the mercy of events he could not control, yet had also embraced a spectacle that he believed he could shape in his favor.
Interviews with a half-dozen people close to him or who had interacted with him in recent days showed Mr. Trump trying to maintain outward appearances that things were going well — bragging about his own standing in the Republican primary polls, mocking his leading prospective rival, Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida — while appearing pensive and even subdued at times.
