Former President Trump spoke at a rally in Michigan, criticizing the legal cases against him as “bullshit.” He accused the judges handling his cases in New York of being corrupt and called his indictments fake.
Trump’s trial in New York City is about allegations that he falsified business records linked to a hush money scheme. He must attend court four days a week. Trump claimed that the charges against him were politically motivated and aimed at hurting him in the upcoming election.
During the rally, Trump also attacked Judge Juan Merchan, who is overseeing his trial, and complained about a gag order. He criticized other judges involved in his civil fraud and defamation cases. Trump didn’t mention the charges against him in Washington, D.C., and Georgia.
He spoke about his plans for a second term, including shutting down the southern border and extending his 2017 tax law. Trump also discussed abortion policy, saying it should be decided by the states.
He suggested that getting elected was crucial to implementing his agenda. The rally in Michigan was Trump’s first visit to a battleground state since his trial began. He also spoke at a rally in Wisconsin the same day.
