Former President Donald Trump recenty apologized to a crowd of supporters on Tuesday for not being able to visit Iowa or New Hampshire because he was “sitting in a courtroom on bullshit” via Media Ite.
It has come to light that during a campaign rally, Trump protested, “How can my corrupt political opponent, crooked Joe Biden, put me on trial during an election campaign that I’m winning by a lot, but forcing me nevertheless to spend time and money away from the campaign trail in order to fight bogus, made up accusations and charges? That’s what they’re doing.”
He then said, “I’m sorry, I won’t be able to go to Iowa today, I won’t be able to go to New Hampshire today, because I’m sitting in a courtroom on bullshit, because his attorney general charged me with something.”
The audience then broke out into chants of “bullshit!”
Trump pleaded not guilty to four charges, including conspiracy to defraud the United States and conspiracy against rights, at a federal courthouse in Washington, D.C. last Thursday. Following his court appearance, Trump wrote in a social media post that he had “a very good day,” despite being arrested and having “to fly to a filthy, dirty, falling apart, & very unsafe Washington, D.C.”
The potential indictment comes as Trump is facing three other indictments. The first of which came from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg this spring on felony charges of falsifying business records. Two more have come from Special Counsel Jack Smith, one of which relates to the alleged retention of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago after the end of Trump’s presidency, and the most recent relates to alleged attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
TRUMP: “I'm sorry I won't be able to go to Iowa today, I won't be able to go to New Hampshire today because I'm sitting in a court room on bullshit because his attorney general charged me with something.”
Crowd ROARS: “BULL SH*T! BULL SH*T! BULL SH*T!”
