In a post-arraignment speech/rally last night, Trump started out with a six-minute list of the usual grievances that culminated in his recent indictment over alleged payments to Stormy Daniels. (Let's be real, though -- we saw the alleged checks.) Via the Daily Beast:
“From the beginning the Democrats spied on my campaign and they attacked me with an onslaught of fraudulent investigations,” he began the speech from his Florida club Mar-a-Lago.
“Russia, Russia, Russia. Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine. Impeachment hoax No.1. Impeachment hoax No. 2. The illegal and unconstitutional raid on Mar-a-Lago. Lying to the FISA courts,” he continued, though he was nowhere near done.
“The FBI and DOJ relentlessly pursuing Republicans. Unconstitutional changes to election laws by not getting approval from state legislators. The millions of votes illegally stuffed into ballot boxes—and all caught on government cameras. And just recently, the FBI and DOJ and collusion with Twitter and Facebook in order not to say anything bad about the Hunter Biden laptop from hell.”
I assume he talked about his "perfect" calls to Ukraine, and Georgia officials. Oh, and somewhere in this word salad, he admitted losing the 2020 election.
Good on MSNBC for not televising the rant:
