Former President Donald Trump insists Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has ‘nothing’ on him, slammed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Stormy Daniels during the first mega-rally of his 2024 campaign.
Trump chose Waco, Texas – and flew in on ‘Trump Force One,’ which circled the thousands of MAGA supporters awaiting his arrival on the tarmac.
‘They have nothing!’ Trump exclaimed in reference to the probe, saying Bragg’s office was ‘stocked with D.C. operatives.’
Some audience members held Trump 2024 signs that read ‘Witch Hunt’ and waved them behind the ex-president’s podium.
Trump called the hush-money case ‘prosecutorial misconduct’ and said it was ‘worse than ballot stuffing, or media manipulation by the FBI working together with Twitter, Facebook and the rest.’
‘It probably makes me the most innocent man in the history of our country. Friends of mine say that,’ Trump said. ‘They persecuted us yet Joe Biden is a stone cold criminal, caught dead to rights and nothing happens.
He then turned his attention to Daniels, who claims she was told to keep quiet about a 2006 affair with Trump. The former president used his familiar nickname for the porn star.
‘I never liked horseface… that wouldn’t be the one. There is no one. We have a great first lady!’
Trump also took a crack at – Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who will likely launch a 2024 presidential bid against the ex-president.
Trump knocked Ron ‘DeSanctimonious,’ saying that he ‘shut down’ Florida over COVID-19 and said that now that people are realizing it, ‘he’s dropping like a rock.’
He then recounted how he felt DeSantis begged Trump for his endorsement in his 2018 run for governor.
‘He’s at almost nothing, he’s got no cash,’ Trump said, then described DeSantis as telling him: ‘If you endorse, I’ll win, please sir, please endorse me.’
‘I said lets give it a shot Ron, I endorsed him and he became like a rocket ship.’
He then boasted that ‘Florida has been successful for decades. Probably as or more successful as it is now,’ minimizing DeSantis’ contributions to the state.
