Trump was speaking at a Republican Party rally. There he called it ‘absurd’ that he is being persecuted. According to the former president, there is no reason for that.
He is suspected of 37 crimes, it was announced on Friday. Trump is suspected of withholding classified documents and obstructing a criminal investigation, among other things.
The case against Trump revolves around documents he took with him to his Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago, after leaving the White House. The FBI seized documents there in August last year, including a hundred top secret documents. This includes military information.
This is footage from the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago:
According to Trump, who wants to run for president again in 2024, it is an attempt to thwart his campaign. That would be behind the current president Biden and his secretary of justice.
Campaign continues
Trump promised to continue his campaign regardless, even if he is convicted in this case. “I’m not leaving,” he said. And he predicted that there would be no prosecution. When asked if he would pardon himself if he becomes president again, he did not answer.
This is Trump’s second time facing criminal charges. There is a case against him in New York for concealing a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.
