Trump and his staff are indeed bad (obviously), so it is safe to assume the worst, and possibly be pleasantly surprised if/when it's shown to be a legitimate arrest.

Why would you make an assumption in this case with no evidence or data? Are you saying the majority of FBI arrests are now driven by politics? Would you be surprised to learn that there have been similar foreign national arrests under previous administrations?
