Donald Trump isn't taking the news very well that Special Counsel Jack Smith added more charges against the former President and two of his employees. Trump is now facing 40 criminal counts in the classified documents case after prosecutors added claims that Trump pushed to delete surveillance footage at Mar-a-Lago and willfully retained an additional sensitive document.
So, of course, he's lashing out at his Trump Social platform. He wants Smith, his prosecutors, Garland, and Lisa Monaco locked up; that's all!
"They ought to throw Deranged Jack Smith and his Thug Prosecutors in jail, with Meritless Garland and Trump Hating Lisa Monaco. They have totally Weaponized the Department of Injustice," he wrote. "Whatever happened to the Crooked Joe Biden Boxes Case? Why was Hillary Clinton allowed to delete 33,000 emails, many of them Classified, AFTER getting a Subpoena from Congress? Why was Bill Clinton allowed to take tapes out of the W.H. in his socks? Why has no other President ever been charged? ELECTION FRAUD!"
Former President Bill Clinton kept audiotapes of when he was interviewed dozens of times by historian Taylor Branch to create an oral history of his presidency from 1993 to 2001. The two cases are entirely different, and Trump kept documents next to the shitter in his bathroom.
Very "fine people."
"At the direction of Crooked Joe Biden and his Weaponized DOJ, Deranged Jack Smith is attempting to destroy the lives of two fine people who have worked for me (and have done a great job!) for a long time," trump falsely said. "They are being persecuted with one goal, to "Get Trump." This is textbook Third World intimidation by rabid, lawless prosecutors. These same craven tactics were used, and failed, during the Russia, Russia, Russia Witch Hunt and other Hoaxes. We will not let Radical Lunatics destroy our Country!"
It's on surveillance video, you weirdo. And President Biden has nothing to do with the investigations into Trump's alleged crimes.
I'm not sure how he can be this stupid:
"How can Deranged Jack Smith bring a case on January 6th., as ridiculous as it is anyway, when I have already won such a case, and been fully acquitted, in the U.S. Senate?" he asked. "In other words, I was Impeached on this, and WON!!! ELECTION INTERFERENCE & PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT, all rolled up as one. We are truly a Nation In Decline!"
That's not the same thing.
"I expect NOTHING from the meeting with my lawyers and the Lunatics in the DOJ regarding January 6th," he added. "They just want to interfere with the Presidential Election on 2024. It is their new form of CHEATING, but we will WIN !!!"
The investigations began before Trump announced his run, so it's not election interference.
