In a recent interview with Time Magazine, former President Donald Trump expressed that he has no interest in going after Joe Biden should Trump win the presidency in November.
Trump frequently calls his legal troubles the “Biden Trials,” suggesting an effort from the White House to hurt the GOP presidential nominee.
“I just want to say for the record, there’s no evidence that President Biden directed this prosecution against you. But even if we stipulated that …” the reporter begins to ask Trump.
“I always hate the way a reporter will make those statements,” Trump shot back. “They know it’s so wrong. It’s just sort of to protect yourself. But no, no. His head of the Justice Department, one of the top few people, was put into the DOJ. Fani [Willis], Mr. [Nathan] Wade, Fani’s lover, spent hours in Washington with the DOJ working on my case. The DOJ worked with Letitia James on my case. The DOJ worked with deranged Jack Smith. He’s a deranged person on my case. No, no, this is all Biden.”
Despite believing Biden is ultimately behind the lawfare, Trump says he has no interest in going after Joe.
“I wouldn’t want to hurt Biden. I’m not looking to hurt Biden. I wouldn’t want to hurt him. I have too much respect for the office,” Trump said. “But he is willing to hurt a former president who is very popular, who got 75 million votes. I got more votes than any other sitting president in history. And I have probably eight cases right now that are all inspired by them, including my civil case.”
Trump says his success will be the greatest retribution.
“No, I don’t want to do that,” he said, adding, “We are going to have great retribution through success. We’re going to make our country successful again. Our retribution is going to be through success of our country.”
