In a speech addressing his historic arraignment that felt more like a campaign rally Tuesday night, former President Donald Trump came out with a six-minute list of unresolved grievances that culminated with his recent indictment over hush-money payments.
“From the beginning the Democrats spied on my campaign and they attacked me with an onslaught of fraudulent investigations,” he began the speech from his Florida club Mar-a-Lago. “Russia, Russia, Russia. Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine. Impeachment hoax No.1. Impeachment hoax No. 2. The illegal and unconstitutional raid on Mar-a-Lago. Lying to the FISA courts,” he continued, going on for another few minutes before expanding to his accomplishments as president.
Just hours after appearing at the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse, Trump jetted straight back to his Florida club, Mar-a-Lago, to deliver the fiery speech.
