Donald Trump: Indictment Has ‘Awoken the World’ to ‘Corruption, Scandal, & Failure’
Breitbart ^ | 2 Aug 2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

The latest indictment against former President Donald Trump has “awoken the world” to the corruption that has taken place over the last three years, the Republican frontrunner said on social media on Wednesday, thanking Americans for their support.

“THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!!! I HAVE NEVER HAD SO MUCH SUPPORT ON ANYTHING BEFORE,” Trump wrote in an all-caps post on Truth Social Wednesday morning.

He continued:

THIS UNPRECEDENTED INDICTMENT OF A FORMER (HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL!) PRESIDENT, & THE LEADING CANDIDATE, BY FAR, IN BOTH THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE 2024 GENERAL ELECTION, HAS AWOKEN THE WORLD TO THE CORRUPTION, SCANDAL, & FAILURE THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE IN THE UNITED STATES FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS.

Trump asserted that America is a “NATION IN DECLINE” but struck a positive note, promising it will be made “GREAT AGAIN, GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE.”

Trump’s post comes less than a day after Special Counsel Jack Smith announced that a grand jury in Washington, D.C., had indicted Trump on charges relating to the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol. The indictment claims that Trump was “determined to stay in power” after the election.

“So for more than two months following Election Day on November 3, 2020, the Defendant spread lies that there had been outcome-determinative fraud in the election that he actually won. These claims were false, and the Defendant knew they were false,” it asserted, failing to reveal how prosecutors claimed to know Trump’s thinking.

As Breitbart News reported:

The indictment does not indicate how prosecutors were able to establish what Trump himself believed, other than the fact that he had been informed by others that his suspicions of fraud were false; nor does it distinguish the case from the “Russia collusion” hoax spread by Trump’s opponents, including within the Department of Justice, after he won

If Trump were railroaded into a conviction, could he appeal all the way to the Supreme Court, and could the Supreme Court be expected to overturn the conviction?

Calling all attorneys!

It does not seem that the majority of the Republicans have “awoke”. They are too silent for my taste. Only a very few have commented.

The plan is not to get a conviction, but to ruin Trump personally and politically.

A conviction can and will be overturned. They are just using the process to destroy him and to send a message to you.

and to send a message to you

I'm getting the message and storing food, ammo, alcohol, silver and tobacco. I don't have much faith in the voting booth anymore and think that a more radical solution is going to be necessary to stop the Democrats and the organizations they control cold.

If this doesn’t work—if this doesn’t stop him—what will they try next?

I’d like to meet those Grand Jurors. And have a chat with them.

One of their ace cards is nukes.

That is, they think it’s an ace.
