Former President Donald Trump has called on Republican district attorneys and attorneys general across the nation to pay close attention to what he called a “tremendous weaponization of justice” being used against him. Trump’s comments come amid ongoing legal battles including four indictments.
“I hope that Republican district attorneys and attorney generals throughout the country are closely watching the tremendous weaponization of justice that is being utilized against me,” Trump said.
“There’s never been anything like it. But you ought to watch. And frankly, it’s an eye for an eye, or it’s fight fire with fire. What they’re doing to our country is amazing. So, Republicans, I hope you’re watching.”
The former President’s remarks were a call to arms for Republican legal officials to take a more aggressive stance in their own jurisdictions, potentially signaling a more combative approach to legal and political battles against Democrats.
WATCH:
Trump has repeatedly said that the investigations are politically motivated and a “witch hunt” against him. Trump’s words may serve as a rallying cry for Republicans, urging them to take a more proactive and aggressive approach.
REACTIONS:
The only thing the rinos republicans are going to do is just complain like always, tweet, use what is happening to raise money and do nothing.

A lot of people fail to realize the gravity of the situation, Trump is going to jail. Now it’s probably a Mar-A-Largo jail, but the result is the same. They will prevent Trump from running. That’s why the uniparty is now attacking Vivek. He’s Trump 2.0, but more focused.

He finally understands that the deck is stacked, he is being railroaded by the entire political apparatus.
It's time to go scorched earth and to use the power that he has, they are going to jail him.— Cooper71 (@RedPillBlues71) September 1, 2023
