The former president centered his mounting legal troubles at his first campaign event in Waco, Texas.
Former President Donald Trump railed against his possibly looming indictment at his first rally for the 2024 presidential election on Saturday, attacking prosecutors in Manhattan for investigating him and proclaiming himself to be “the most innocent man in the history of our country.”...
He did not specifically call for protests in response to his potential arrest, as he had last weekend whenhe was going to be indicted by a New York grand jury, and he did not repeat a claim from early Friday that there would be “potential death and destruction” if he were to be charged. Trump called out one employee from the prosecutor’s office by name, claiming he had moved to the DA from the Justice Department—“They couldn’t get it done in Washington, so they said, ‘Let’s use local offices,’” he said—and he claimed without evidence that federal officials are using “local henchmen” to prosecute him .
that Waco was chosen as a location for the rally because it is central to major population areas and has the infrastructure to host an event of that size.
