Former adviser defended Trump: Shame

Former US Vice President Mike Pence said it was “disgraceful” to the justice system that the New York Grand Jury indicted former President Donald Trump as part of the “shake off” investigation.

According to the CNN report, Pence stated that even though the charges against Trump were dropped, it was wrong for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg to continue to pursue them. Regarding the New York Court Grand Jury’s indictment that Trump paid $130,000 “in silence” to adult film star Stormy Daniels, who allegedly engaged in extramarital sex, Pence said: “I think that means that the overwhelming majority of the American people have had justice and equality.” treatment before the law. It goes against the vision of the believer,” he said.

Former Vice President Pence called the charges against Trump “an embarrassment to the justice system” and argued that these charges “will only divide people.” “I think the media obsession with these Trump investigations is fading before the eyes of the American people, who are struggling under the weight of the failed policies of the Biden administration,” Pence said, noting that during his visits around the country, no one brought the investigations Trump is facing.

Trump, who will be the first former US president to appear in court on an indictment in American history, called the indictment against him “political” and argued that it involved “election interference.”

Trump, who is running for the 2024 US presidential election, announced on March 18 that he expected the Manhattan district attorney to be arrested over his investigation, calling for a protest. (AA)
