Unlike Joe Biden, whose party mates are turning their backs on him, the GOP proves they are all behind President Donald Trump as he faces selective prosecution under the Biden administration.
Representatives Byron Donalds (Florida), House Speaker Mike Johnson (Louisiana), Cory Mills (Florida), North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy attended the entire day of Trump’s sham criminal trial in New York.
These high-profile Republican members joined Trump as he entered the courthouse to face his former lawyer turned archenemy, Michael Cohen, who is on his second day delivering his testimony and will be cross-examined by the defense.
Ramaswamy shared his experience with Patrick Bet-David in his podcast and said, “All we’ve seen is one more layer of the onion of how the whole thing is a charade.”
“The system is using all the tools at its disposal right now to punish one president and provide cover for another,” Johnson said, who did not enter the courtroom and opted to defend his friend, Trump, among the throng of reporters.
“They’re using this trial as a hook. It’s so corrupt and everybody knows it.”
Ramaswamy on X hit the Biden administration for his weaponization of law against Trump, calling it “a politically motivated assault on the leading candidate for US President, green-lit by his political opponent, Joe Biden, and carried out at the highest levels of the White House and Department of Justice.”
He continued, “no one has a clue what the alleged crime even is.”
“The irony here is that the crime is supposedly about bad bookkeeping, but the real bookkeeping scandal is how to account for Judge Merchan’s own family members being paid millions of dollars by Democratic operatives.”
“His entire legal theory depends on the ludicrous idea that Trump should have used campaign funds for a personal payment, yet if Trump had done that, they’d be prosecuting him for it – which is the ultimate proof that this is a politicised persecution.”
“The American people will deliver the ultimate verdict in November: say NO to the weaponization of justice,” Ramaswamy wrote.
Meanwhile, Florida lawmaker Donalds described the entire trial as a “travesty of justice,” and “a misuse of the justice system.”
For military veteran and lawmaker Cory Mills, the whole trial is a ” weaponization of what was the Department of Justice.”
Before this, Senator JD Vance (R-Ohio), New York Representative Nicole Malliotkis, and Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville also flocked to Trump’s hearing last Monday.
