Trump warns of ‘death & destruction’ if charged with a crime



WASHINGTON: Former President of the United States Donald Trump warns of the possibility of “death and destruction” if he faces criminal charges, hours later New York Prosecutors investigating his hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels said they would not be threatened.
The post early Friday on Trump’s social networking site Truth is the latest in a series of verbal attacks on Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg since last Saturday. trumpet wrong prediction three days later he will be arrested.
Trump falsely claimed that his defeat in 2020 was the result of fraud – a claim that inspired his followers to launch the deadly attack on January 6, 2021 on US Capitol in a failed attempt to prevent Congress from certifying the election of Democratic President Joe Biden, who defeated Republican Trump by more than 7 million votes.
“What kind of person can impeach another person, in this case a former President of the United States, who has received more votes than any incumbent President in history and is the leading candidate (for far!) for the Republican nomination, with a Crime, when everyone knows that NO Crime was committed, and also knows that death and destruction are hidden in an allegation. Could such a mistake be disastrous for our Country?” wrote Trump, who is seeking the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
Bragg’s office, in a letter to Republican committee chairmen in Congress on Thursday, challenged their stance to investigate his office and said Trump had “created a false expectation that he would be arrested” in the Saturday post.
The letter called the chairman’s request for communications, documents and testimony an “illegal invasion of New York’s sovereignty.”
Stormy Daniels, an adult film actress and director whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, said she received money in exchange for keeping quiet about a sexual encounter she had with Trump in 2006.
Trump has denied ever having an affair with Daniels and called the payment a “simple personal transaction”. He has said he has not committed a crime and has called the investigation politically motivated.
The Manhattan grand jury probing Trump will not be reconvened until next week.
In other cases, Georgia prosecutors are looking into Trump’s attempt to overturn his election defeat there, and a federal special counsel is investigating both the failed attempt to overturn his him and the removal of classified documents from the White House after Trump left office.
On Saturday, Trump will hold a campaign rally in Waco, Texas, 30 years after a raid on the Branch Davidians religious sect by federal agents left 86 people dead, including four employees. law enforcement.
The event has become a symbol of the government’s overreaching for some and a pivotal moment for some right-wing extremist groups.
In an email, a spokesman for Trump’s campaign said Waco was chosen because it is located among several major population centers and has the necessary infrastructure to host a large event.
