Al Sharpton, the civil rights activist and reverend, said he thinks the indictment of former President Trump was “spiritual,” saying Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg will “deliver us justice.”
“I’m always looking for the spiritual interpretation of something. And I think it’s very ironic that on … the 55th anniversary of Dr. King’s assassination, that the president that tried to turn back a lot of what King did is going to be arraigned in Manhattan Supreme Court by a Black DA,” Sharpton said at an event at New York University on Monday before Trump’s arraignment, according to the Washington Times.
The comments from Sharpton, who also hosts a weekend show on MSNBC, came before Trump was arraigned in a Manhattan courtroom on Tuesday. The arraignment was surrounded by swarms of law enforcement and media, and featured dueling anti and pro-Trump demonstrators. The arraignment marked the first time a sitting or former president has faced criminal charges.
Trump was charged with 34 felony counts related to the falsification of business records in an alleged scheme to pay off Stormy Daniels and others to keep potentially damaging information about then-candidate Trump from going public before the 2016 election.

When a sentence starts with “Al Sharpton,” you don’t really need to read the whole sentence . . .

“”the president that tried to turn back a lot of what King did””
A lot? Name one!!!!
To: ChicagoConservative27
“...that the president that tried to turn back a lot of what King did is going to be arraigned in Manhattan Supreme Court by a Black DA,”
Exactly what did Trump do “to turn back what King did”?
Put up or shut up Sharpton — give us a list. Do not include the bogus claim that saying “there are good people on either side of the issue of removing historical statues” was worse than the Holocaust.
