Donald Trump: <\/strong>“What kind of person can charge another person, in this case a former President of the United States, who got more votes than any sitting President in history, and leading candidate (by far!) for the Republican Party nomination, with a Crime, when it is known by all that NO Crime has been committed, & also known that potential death & destruction in such a false charge could be catastrophic for our Country? Why & who would do such a thing? Only a degenerate psychopath that truely hates the USA!”<\/em><\/p>\nhttps:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/110076529058362533<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Trump also posted a photo of himself holding a baseball bat with a photo of DA Alvin Bragg right next to his photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This kind of thing is not helping Trump, and it is not only dangerous – it’s ridiculous. It appears the New York DA is having trouble getting an indictment by the Grand Jury. So why Trump would post things like this makes no sense. As Republicans consider who would be the best nominee to defeat the Democrats in 2024 and lead the country, it is hard to see how Trump could do either with all this baggage hanging over his head. No doubt, Trump has been persecuted for the last 8 years. It is indefensible the way he has been treated. But he now appears to be showing the effects of that stress, and is acting in a totally unstable way. For Trump supporters, like myself in 2016 and 2020, it is difficult to watch. But it is imperative we not let the Democrats skate to victory in 2024. The potential candidacy of Gov. Ron DeSantis is looking more and more likely – and necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “Donald Trump on Friday threatened \u201cdeath and destruction\u201d if he\u2019s criminally charged in New York \u2014 writing the shocking social media warning after\u00a0posting an image of himself holding a baseball bat next to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg\u2019s head.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThey are HUMAN SCUM!\u201d\u00a0the 76-year-old former president\u00a0raged in one post<\/a>\u00a0asking why Bragg \u201crefuses to do the right thing and \u2018call it a day?\u2019\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Trump is seeking a rematch against President Biden in 2024 and previously used heated language ahead of actual violence \u2014 most notoriously on Jan. 6, 2021, when he told thousands of supporters to march on the Capitol and \u201cfight like hell\u201d to prevent certification of Biden\u2019s Electoral College win, which they proceeded to do by smashing into the building and battling with police.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Trump\u00a0shared the image<\/a>\u00a0of himself holding a baseball bat \u2014 with Bragg\u2019s hands up \u2014 on his Truth Social platform Thursday as he devoted his day to attacking the\u00a0prosecutor for pursuing a case<\/a>\u00a0over the \u201chush money\u201d payout to porn star Stormy Daniels.
