United states indicted on State Charges stemming from his and others efforts to overturn joe bidens election win in the State Of Georgia. I make decisions based on the facts and the law. We look at the facts and look at the law and bring charges. Having another indictment for him questioning the integrity of this countrys elections is what we are doing to a president that served this country. The governor of georgia i guess cant pardon. I dont know how you get out of this. Do i intend to try the 19 defendant in indictment together . Yes. The calendar is getting crowded. All the possible trials that the former president is facing. This case has a couple of twists on advice of counsel. You see some of the lawyers on whod advice they relied indicted. An abuse of power by angry democrats who decide the rule of law doesnt matter to them anymore. Its bigger than watergate. It goes to the foundation of democracy.
