House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., is forecasting a big election victory for President Trump next year following his unprecedented arraignment on Tuesday.
Stefanik, writing in a press release on Tuesday, predicted that the indictment would help Trump “defeat Joe Biden” and ensure that he is “sworn in as president” again in January 2025.
“President Trump continues to skyrocket in the polls, and just like the Russia hoax and both sham impeachments, President Trump will defeat this latest witch-hunt, defeat Joe Biden, and be sworn in as President of the United States of America in January 2025,” wrote Stefanik.
She also called Trump’s arrest “shameful,” writing that it was an “unprecedented and chilling chapter in the Left’s weaponization of the justice system against their leading political opponent.”
“This dangerous and illegal overreach by a radical DA has completely backfired for the corrupt Far Left Democrats who would rather desperately tear apart the fabric of our country than face President Trump at the ballot box,” wrote Stefanik.
The congresswoman continued, “The American people are smart, and they know this is politically charged and that President Trump will defeat these charges in court and turn the tables on the Far Left Democrats by exposing their corruption and abuse of power.”
Stefanik’s statement comes following Trump’s indictment from Democrat Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who has charged the 45th president with 34 felony crimes.
Trump entered a “not guilty” plea on Tuesday, and later called Bragg “the real criminal here.”
“This fake case was brought forward only to interfere with the 2024 election, and it should be dropped immediately,” Trump told supporters at his Mar-a-Lago home late on Tuesday.
