Former President Donald Trump held a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania and he used the platform to put forth a strong message for all of the Republican candidates running for president in 2024: drop out.
Trump accused those running of “wasting hundreds of millions of dollars” that could be better used in the 2022 elections.
He also took shots at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, calling him “DeSanctis” as he made his case to the crowd.
This rally comes just days after special counsel Jack Smith unveiled a superseding indictment against Trump over his handling of sensitive documents which includes charges for obstruction and willful retention of national defense information.
Trump still faces legal jeopardy despite being the frontrunner for the Republican nomination with other threats coming from different states.
In the New York hush-money case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg there are state-level charges that have been filed against Trump.
There is also an inquiry going on related to efforts geared towards fighting the outcome of 2020’s election and charges stemming from this inquiry may follow shortly as well as similar charges coming from Georgia soon too.
Despite these looming legal entanglements, Donald Trump remains atop all polls when it comes to who will be granted the GOP nomination come 2024 elections with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis following close behind him according to recent polling data available.
In what was arguably one of his most rousing speeches since leaving office, Donald Trump addressed supporters on Saturday evening at a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania where he continued to blame Democrats for their alleged “witch hunt” against him and his followers.
The former President then called upon Congress not authorize any additional payments towards Ukraine based on their fights against Russian invaders before turning back towards Republicans asking them why they haven’t done enough about alleged corruption amongst Democrats.
He added that anyone who doesn’t act should immediately be voted out and replaced by someone tough enough who will do something about corrupt politicians within their own party ranks if elected into office next year.
