Trump Scorches “Deranged Jack Smith” in Response to Proposed Gag Order
President Trump scorched Special Counsel “Deranged Jack Smith” in responses online and in speeches given Friday night to Smith’s proposed gag order over his federal election case in Washington, D.C.
Trump posted to Truth Social, “Biden Prosecutor, Deranged Jack Smith, has asked the Court to limit 45th President, and leading Republican Nominee (by more than 50 points, & beating Dems!) DONALD J. TRUMP’S, PUBLIC STATEMENTS. So, I’m campaigning for President against an incompetent person who has WEAPONIZED the DOJ & FBI to go after his Political Opponent, & I am not allowed to COMMENT? They Leak, Lie, & Sue, & they won’t allow me to SPEAK? How else would I explain that Jack Smith is DERANGED, or Crooked Joe is INCOMPETENT?”
Later on Friday Trump commented on the gag order in remarks to the Concerned Women for America Summit in Washington, D.C.
President Donald Trump: “Deranged Jack Smith, he’s the prosecutor, wants to take away my rights under the First Amendment, wants to take away my right to speak freely and openly. Never forget our enemies want to stop us because we are the only ones who can stop them.” pic.twitter.com/EkHNHpuyGx
