Former President and 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump spoke to a crowd of his supporters in Bedminster, NJ following his arraignment in a federal court in Miami on 37 felony charges, including illegally retaining defense secrets and obstructing the government’s efforts to reclaim the classified documents.
Despite Trump’s earlier assessment that it was a “SAD DAY” for the nation, that didn’t stop him from firing up the New Jersey audience —particularly on the topic of Joe Biden.
“[When elected], I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America, Joe Biden, and the entire Biden crime family,” Trump told the audience, who immediately went into the “lock him up” chant.

Trump says it’s no coincidence he was charged the same day the Biden bribery bombshell dropped.
“It’s also no coincidence these charges against me came down the very same day evidence revealed Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe from Ukraine,” he said.

“But the FBI and the Justice Department don’t want to talk about it,” he added. “They showed something on television tonight. It had zero time on three major networks, but my impeachment had almost all the time. I think I had 351 minutes, they had no minutes.”
