Former President Donald Trump issued a long, rancorous response to his indictment by a Manhattan grand jury Tuesday.
"This is Political Persecution and Election Interference at the highest level in history," wrote Trump in a statement moments after the indictment news broke.
He went on to decry the Democrats for doing the "unthinkable" and indicting a former president for the first time in U.S. history.From the time I came down the golden escalator at Trump Tower, and even before I was sworn in as your President of the United States, the Radical Left Democrats - the enemy of the hard-working men and women of this Country - have been engaged in a Witch-Hunt to destroy the Make America Great Again movement. You remember it just like I do: Russia, Russia, Russia; the Mueller Hoax; Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine; Impeachment Hoax 1; Impeachment Hoax 2; the illegal and unconstitutional Mar-a-Lago raid; and now this.
