Former President Trump railed against the judge in his criminal hush money case early Monday, just hours before the first criminal trial against a former U.S. president is set to begin.

Repeating complaints he has made for months, Trump argued that Judge Juan Merchan is corrupt, that the charges against him are political in nature and baseless, and dubbed the entire effort a “witch hunt.”

“The Radical Left Democrats are already cheating on the 2024 Presidential Election by bringing, or helping to bring, all of these bogus lawsuits against me, thereby forcing me to sit in courthouses, and spend money that could be used for campaigning, instead of being out in the field knocking Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the History of the United States,” he wrote in one early morning Truth Social post. “Election Interference!”

Stormy Daniels, the radical left democrat who is cheating in the election. Gotcha.

He's spent his entire life not being held accountable for anything he's done, and getting away with everything, so the fact that he's being held to account for some tiny portion of it now seems like persecution to him, and obviously the only reason anyone would do that is for political reasons.
