‘Stop weaponization. Fight your fight yourself! Don’t use prosecutors and judges to go after your opponent, to try and damage your opponent so you can win an election. Our country is much bigger than that.’
President Trump
Trump stressed the power of voters to influence elections swiftly, stating, “The voters can take the person out of the race very quickly. But a court shouldn’t be doing that. And the Supreme Court saw that very well.” He added, “And I really do believe that will be a unifying factor because while most states were thrilled to have me know, there were some that didn’t and they didn’t want that for political reasons.”
Highlighting his strong poll numbers, Trump asserted, “I am beating President Biden in almost every poll.”
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court agreed to hear arguments on presidential immunity last week after Trump and his legal team appealed to the high court. These arguments are scheduled to commence on April 22, with a decision expected in mid to late June. Special Counsel Jack Smith’s election interference case remains on hold pending this ruling.
Trump expressed his views on presidential immunity, stressing its importance for effective governance. He stated, “If a president doesn’t have full immunity, you really don’t have a president because nobody that is serving in that office will have the courage to make, in many cases what would be the right decision, or it could be the wrong decision.” He emphasized that a president should not be prosecuted for decisions made in the interest of the country.
Addressing Biden directly, Trump urged him to cease the use of legal mechanisms to target political opponents. He said, “I will say that President Biden, number one, stop weaponization. Fight your fight yourself. Don’t use prosecutors and judges to go after your opponent to try and damage your opponent so you can win an election. Our country is much bigger than that.”
Trump expressed his frustration with the ongoing legal battles, describing them as a “rigged deal.” However, he reiterated his desire to win based on policies, stating, “I don’t want to win this way.” He continued, “Look, I want to win based on my policies. We’re going to cut taxes. We’re going to get interest rates down. You’re going to be able to buy homes again. I mean, you can’t buy a home today. The interest rates are so high. I want to win those supporters.”
Reflecting on the impact of high energy prices on global dynamics, Trump remarked on Putin’s wealth accumulation and its potential influence on conflicts like the war in Ukraine. He added, “Putin became very rich because at $100 a barrel, he’s got so much money to fight a war at $40 a barrel.” He emphasized his desire to prevent wars and stabilize global affairs if he were in office, stating, “I want to stop wars. I want to stop the war in Ukraine with Russia. I want to stop what’s happening in Israel would have never been attacked if I were president. Ukraine would have never, ever been attacked. If I was president, you wouldn’t have had inflation. Inflation was caused by high energy prices. I had low energy prices. I would have kept them there very easily. And it probably maybe caused the war with Ukraine because Putin became rich. All of a sudden it went up so much.”
He concluded by highlighting the importance of economic policies and foreign relations in shaping the trajectory of nations.
