Former President Donald Trump said the indictments handed down to the Trump Organization and the company's chief financial officer are "reminiscent of a communist dictatorship."
Accusing New York prosecutors of "prosecutorial misconduct," Trump told a crowd in Florida that the indictments against the Trump Organization and CFO Allen Weisselberg showed that the leadership in "Democrat-run cities" are "corrupting and weaponizing the law against their political opponents."
"Radical Left New York City and state prosecutors who have allowed crime to skyrocket ... are now outrageously and shamefully continuing the greatest witch hunt. That's what they do," he said Saturday night. "They go and target me."
