Many problems and economic stressors have emerged as a result of Joe Biden’s administration, and as far-left protestors flood college campuses and hoist Palestinian flags, Americans are likely feeling the strain from domestic strife and division.
During such trying times, President Donald Trump has bounced back and forth recently between hitting the campaign trail and sitting in court in Manhattan four days a week. On Thursday, he returned to New York after delivering back-to-back speeches in Wisconsin and Michigan.
He spoke to the press early in the morning, wearing a rare but splashy gold tie as he arrived in court. He told the press of his Wednesday campaign spree, “it was quite a day yesterday.”
Despite being tied up in court, Trump has still managed to run his 2024 campaign and rake in millions of dollars in fundraising. He has also added to his net worth by billions of dollars amid a successful merger between his media company and Digital World Acquisition Corp. Perhaps his gold tie was a nod to his impressive fundraising and business streak over the past few months, despite his opponents’ best efforts to slow him down.
Trump called the trial “bogus” and eviscerated the fact that “it could have been brought eight years ago…instead, they wait, and wait, and wait.” He slammed Judge Juan Merchan as “conflicted” and eviscerated the timing of the trial, which coincided with the GOP primary election and now, the general election.
“It should be illegal because it’s election interference,” he said.
The president then pivoted to talking about the ongoing pro-Palestinian protests and chaos unfolding on America’s campuses, praising “America’s finest” for working hard to clear out the troublemakers and encampments at Columbia University and UCLA.
“Just so you understand, this is the radical left, this is a movement from the left, not from the right. The right is not your problem, despite what, like, law enforcement likes to say…these are radical left lunatics, and they’ve got to be stopped now, because it’s going to go on and on and it’s going to be worse and worse, and you know, they take over countries, okay?”
He added, “And we’re not letting them take over the USA. We’re not letting the radical left MORONS take over this country.”
