In the fourth week of his trial regarding hush-money in New York, Donald Trump has intensified his criticism of the justice system. He made these remarks to donors at a private event in Florida, claiming that President Joe Biden is running an oppressive administration similar to the Gestapo.
These comments were made shortly after the former president was found guilty of criminal contempt in New York for disobeying a judge's order to remain quiet. Throughout the trial, Trump is required to be present in a New York courtroom for four days every week.
Feeling confined by the trial and facing numerous criminal charges in four separate cases, Trump is portraying himself as a victim of the legal system.
During a lengthy speech at a donor retreat in Palm Beach on Saturday, Trump described the current administration as operating like the secret police in Nazi Germany. He stated that this is the only way they believe they can succeed, but he remains unaffected by their actions.
