Donald Trump Jr. criticizes ‘Witch Hunt’ trial against father, calling out Biden campaign rally nearby
President Donald Trump’s son criticized his father’s trial as a “witch hunt” amidst a Biden campaign event nearby. The trial, including a hush-money case, was largely overlooked until the campaign orchestrated an event outside the courthouse. Actor Robert De Niro spoke, vehemently opposing Trump’s potential re-election, suggesting dire consequences if he were to return to power. President Donald Trump’s son denounced his father’s trial as a ”witch hunt” during a nearby Biden campaign event. The trial, involving a hush-money case, gained attention when the campaign held an event outside the courthouse. Actor Robert De Niro passionately spoke out against Trump’s possible re-election, warning of grave outcomes if he were to regain power.
President Donald Trump’s eldest son slammed the highly controversial criminal trial that his father faces in New York on Tuesday, saying the fact that President Joe Biden’s campaign was holding a political event across the street proved that the trial was nothing more than a “witch hunt.”
After largely ignoring Trump’s ongoing hush-money trial in New York, Biden’s campaign held an event outside the courthouse as the trial is set to go to closing arguments. The Biden campaign invited actor Robert De Niro — who is known for making vulgar attacks on the former president — to speak. De Niro denounced Trump and effectively suggested that the world as it exists would end if Trump was re-elected.
“Under Trump, this kind of government will perish from the Earth. I don’t mean to scare you. No, no, wait, maybe I do mean to scare you,” he said. “If Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss these freedoms goodbye that we all take for granted. And elections? Forget about them. That’s over, that’s done. If he gets in, I can tell you right now, he will never leave. He will never leave. You know that. He will never leave.”
Trump Jr. responded to the Biden campaign circus while speaking to reporters near the courthouse.
“The fact that they’re holding a rally across the street from this very witch hunt, right across the street, tells us exactly what we all knew all along, that it is a political persecution,” he said. “It is a witch hunt. There is a reason one of the people sitting at that desk was the number three person in Joe Biden’s DOJ. I know my father is not allowed to say ‘Matthew Colangelo’ is his name, because he’s been gagged. The President of the United States is not allowed to exercise his First Amendment rights in New York City in this day and age.”
Trump Jr. added in a post on X that “the Biden campaign would hold a rally outside of the courthouse during closing arguments tells you everything you needed to know.”
“Election interference!!!” he wrote.
