SAGINAW, MI (MPRN)— Former President Donald Trump used the weekly pause in his ongoing “hush money” trial to campaign in the battleground states of Wisconsin and Michigan.
He told the crowds the legal system was trying to silence their vote by silencing him as a candidate.
Trump immediately went on the attack when he stepped into an airplane hangar for a rally in Michigan’s bellwether Saginaw County. Among his biggest targets were the legal actions against him that Trump asserts are motivated by politics.
“The ultimate verdict on this travesty will not come in a courtroom... it will come at the ballot box. And the American people will find Crooked Joe Biden guilty of trying to destroy our country. He’s destroying our country.”
Trump also repeated false claims of ballot fraud in Detroit during the 2020 election and vowed to “save” Michigan’s signature auto industry by steering away from electric vehicles and heavily taxing cars made by Chinese companies.
