PA Crowd Chants ‘ We Love Trump’ After Former President Vows To Defeat ‘Communist Show Trials’
Former President Donald Trump was met with chants of “we love Trump” after he vowed to emerge victorious over Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s “communist show trial.”
The former president took the stage shortly before 8 p.m. Eastern Time on Saturday night in front of an energetic Allentown, Pennsylvania crowd. As Trump took the stage, the crowd erupted into a massive roar and deafening chants of “USA!”

The crowd — which far exceeded expectations according to conservative commentator Jack Posobiec — remained electric throughout the former president’s speech. “But like all true communist show trials… this is what you call a communist show trial,” Trump said of Bragg’s case, which is set to go to trial next week.
“And we’re going communist, don’t kid yourself. We don’t win this election, this country is finished,” Trump said. The crowd then erupted into loud chants of “USA” and “we love Trump!”
“Thank you very much. I love you too! That’s why I put up with this stuff,” Trump responded. “Remember, I’ve been indicted more than Al Capone, the great gangster. I’d never heard the word indictment. Now all of the sudden if I fly over a Democrat state, they call it a blue state, I get indicted by a grand jury.”

Bragg’s dubious case is set to go to trial in New York next week.
Legal experts have repeatedly poked holes in the case against Trump brought forward by Bragg. The Manhattan D.A. used COVID-era policies to expand the statute of limitations on an administrative payment error, which is generally a misdemeanor. Bragg then upgraded the charge to a felony, citing a “conspiracy” to commit another crime. The other crime has never been specified by Bragg.
He then copy/pasted the same charge 33 times, one for each administrative error, and charged the former president with 37 felonies.
Trump faces more than 100 years in prison if convicted in the Bragg case alone.
