Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican running for president, questioned reports that President Trump may soon be indicted on Saturday, calling it “un-American” to bring charges against the former leader.
The businessman claimed on Twitter that it was un-American for the government to utilize the cops to imprison political opponents. Liberals might have rightfully screamed out if a Republican prosecutor had arrested then-candidate John Kerry in 2004 on a campaign finance technicality when Bush & Cheney were in office.
The public’s confidence in our democratic process will be damaged, Ramaswamy said. “I encourage the Manhattan District Attorney to rethink this decision and set aside party politics to maintain our constitutional nation.
According to reports, the former president will be charged with an accused bribe money case involving porn star Stormy Daniels.
To stop Daniels from disclosing her 2006 affair with Trump, Trump’s then-attorney Michael Cohen is said to have given her $130,000 throughout his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump is said to have paid Cohen back in installments.
According to prosecutors, the $130,000 payout to Daniels was an illegal contribution to the Trump campaign because Daniels’ NDA benefited his campaign.
