Donald Trump was particularly active Sunday night on Truth Social, raging against the Department of Justice and the usual suspects (looking at you, special counsel Jack Smith) over his recent slew of legal battles, notably complaining over his latest indictment while campaigning for president. Trump went as far to label charges brought against him by Attorney General Merrick Garland and Smith as “prosecutorial misconduct” and “election interference.” He wrote: “Do you think that A.G. Garland, and Deranged Jack Smith, understand that we are in the middle of a major political campaign for President of the United States? Have they looked at recent poll numbers? Why didn’t they bring these ridiculous charges years before - Why did they wait to bring them NOW - A virtually unheard of scenario? PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT! ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” Earlier, the former president criticized President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party, telling fans “DO THEY UNDERSTAND THE DAMAGE BEING DONE TO AMERICA?” Trump wrote. “IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE. WE MUST STOP THESE ‘MONSTERS’ FROM FURTHER DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY!”
