FORT PIERCE, Florida — Steps away from the federal courthouse where Donald Trump will face criminal charges, Ndiaga Niang sweeps the sidewalk in front of his African goods shop every day. Colorful wooden elk and elephants lean over him as he collects leaves and debris along U.S. 1 and Orange Avenue.
Whenever the former president’s trial starts, Niang plans to clean his windows, clear a path through his store, and dust his candles, woven bags and carved statues. He said as part of the community, he wants to represent it well.
