Trump Is Already Fundraising Off of Potential Arrest: Uses Speaker McCarthy's Remark that this bogus indictment could be federal election interference
PJ Media ^ | 03/18/2023 | Matt Margolis

On Friday, we learned that the Manhattan District Attorney’s office may indict Trump over alleged hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.

On Saturday morning, Trump acknowledged in a Truth Social post that there is a possibility that he could be arrested on bogus charges by the Manhattan District Attorney’s office and called on his supporters to protest the blatant abuse of power.

Some have predicted that, should Trump be arrested, it will backfire spectacularly on the Democrats and propel him back to the White House. “If this happens, Trump will be re-elected in a landslide victory,” Elon Musk tweeted in regard to Trump’s potential arrest. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) also believes that the bogus indictment could be federal election interference and has directed the House to investigate.

“Here we go again — an outrageous abuse of power by a radical DA who lets violent criminals walk as he pursues political vengeance against President Trump,” McCarthy tweeted. “I’m directing relevant committees to immediately investigate if federal funds are being used to subvert our democracy by interfering in elections with politically motivated prosecutions.”

Trump clearly sees the political implications of the Democrats’ abuse of power and is using it to his advantage. On Saturday, his campaign sent out an email soliciting campaign donations.

“You’re our country’s only hope,” the email, which was received by PJ Media, begins. “If the current Democrat regime can get away with threatening to arrest its biggest political opponent, then our once great Republic will have fully descended into a third-world tyranny.”

“But make no mistake: This isn’t about me. It’s about YOU,” the email continues. “The regime wants to intimidate YOU out of voting for someone who is not beholden to the globalist ruling class.”

Fantastic! If I was facing “Potential Arrest,” I, like most normal people, would be fundraising like crazy.

But the loons on the Left, as we know so well, have no concept of “normal people” anymore.

It looks like to me that the demonicrats planed an arrest to cause conservatives to protest and give ANTIFA a chance to riot and blame conservatives. They could also use the riots to distract form information about the Buyden crime family. Trump caught wind of it and exposed it prematurely and turned their plans back on them.

Is Trump fundraising? Or pulling off a political stunt?

His calling for massive numbers of protesters on Tuesday is certainly NOT a good idea.

Garland and his Gestapo agents are still arresting protesters from January 6, 2021.

The streets are not the capitol.

Big difference.

Uhh, why is the radical Left allowed to protest whatever, and wherever they want, and normal people not afforded the same courtesy?

Your attitude is very interesting.

I wish I had an answer for that. But you and I both know that since the overthrow of America on J6, we no longer are entitled to the rights and freedoms “normal people” used to have.

Ask anyone of the thousands of peaceful protesters unconstitutionally arrested and held over the last two years.
