jack smith, i don't think is any better. leticia james is terrible.he campaigned on i will get trump, i will get trump and then it goes before a trump hating judge. the whole thing is a rigged deal.erstands it. i'm lucky i'm able to explain it to the public because if you weren't able to explain it, the public wouldn't know, they'd belie i don't want to win this . look, i want to win based on my policies are better, we're going to cut taxes, we're going interest rates down and you'll be able to buy homes again. you can't buy a home today, the interest rate is so high. i want to win on safe borders. i want to stop the war in ukraine with russia. i want to stop what's happening in israel. israel would never have been attacked if i were president. ukraine would never have ever been attacked if i was president. you wouldn't have had inflation. inflation was caused by high energyrices. i had low energy prices and kept them there, very easily. and probably may be caused the war with ukraine because putin be sudden, it went up so much. i watched president bi

and they can defend themselves, guys like bragg and letitia james and fani and mr. jack smithhey should be doing is filing fighting crime, and that would lead me to the end, i will say that president biden, number one, stopped -- stop weapon is a, fight the fight yourself. -- stop weaponization. fight the fight yourself. stop trying this to win an election. our country is much bigger than that. another thing i say to president biden, close the borders now. this is not sustainable for our country. it's not sustainable for our cities. our country is under siege. this is a violent thing that you've done. many people are dying. many people are dying. they die in the trip up, going through the border, and they die in our country. but many of the people coming jm mental institutions an insane asylums, many are terrorists, you see it, many are ti believee have right now is probably closer to 15 million people. and by the time the term ends, the president's, i will believe you will be close to 20 million people. that is almost larger than any state in the union. our country, it is uns

and he has also suggested these are not the alvin bragg, the fani willis, letitia james jack smith cases. these are the joe biden trials that they are using to go after him because he is a major threat to the biden administration and that works for his base. it gets them ginned up. the question is how hold its impact or move voters that are independent and undecided voters who are the critical voting electorate as we head into november. and that's the question they need to quickly pivot from the courtroom to the campaign trail on issues that resonate with voters, which are immigration, inflation, the economy, and national security yeah arrow one of the conventional wisdom is i suppose through this entire trump legal saga over the last year or so is that as he has been able >> to push these things off, that it's worked pretty well for him, but if he pushes all of these other cases besides the album bragg case, pass the election and it's just the alvin bragg case, the hush money case. i'm not sure that's going to work out so well politically, i mean, to have the sorted and unseemly details

in the country and they can defend themselves, what, guys like bragg and leticia james and fani and deranged jack smithhat they should be doing is fighting violent crime and would lead me to the end p. i president biden, number one, stop weaponization. fight your yourself. don't use prosecutors and judges to go after your opponent to try and damage your opponent so you can win an election. our country is much bigger than that. the other thing i say to president biden, close the borders now. this is for our country. it's not sustainable for our cities. our country is under siege. this is a thing that you've done and many people are dying, many, many people are dying. they die on theri up, they die going through the border, and they die in our country. but many of the people coming up are frommfns and jails, from mental institutions and insane asylums, many are terrorists. you see it. i believe the real r that we have right now is probably closer to 15 million people and by the time the term en, i believe the president's term ends, i believe you'll be at close to 20 million larger ty state in the union.

what guys like brag and letitia james and fani willis, and deranged jack smith, what they should be doing is fighting violent crime. that would lead me to the end. i will say that, president biden, numon weaponization. fight your fight yourself. don't use prosecutors and judges to go after your opponent to try to damage -- damage your opponent so you can win an election. our country is much bigger than that. the other thing i say to president biden, close borders now. this is not sustainabletry, it's not sustainable for our cities. our country is undersea. -- under siege. this is a violent think you many people are dying. many, many people have died. they dropped -- they die in the trip up, they die going through the border and they die in our country. many people coming are from prisons and jails. fromtal institutions and insane asylums. many are terrorists. you see it. many, many are terrorists. i believe the real number we have right now is probably closer to 15 million people. by the timehe term president's term ends you will be close to 20 million people. that's our most larger than

guys like bragg and les james and fani and jack smith and thigh should be hiding violent chime and that'llumber one stop weaponization. fight your fight yourself. don't use prosecutors and judges to go after your opponent to damage your opponent to win an election. our country is bigger than that. i also say to president biden, close the boarders now. this is not guilty sustainable for our country, it's not sustainable for our cities, our country is under siege. this is a violent thing that you've done and many people are dying many, many people are dying. they die on the trip up, they die going through the border and die in our country but many people coming up are from prisons and jails, from mental institutions and insane asylums and many are terrorists, you see it, many, many are terrorists, and i believe the real number we have right now is probably closer to 15 million people and by the time it's de-prioritizizationed, i believe the president's term ends, i believe you'll be at close to 20 million people. that's almost larger than any state in the union. our country, it is not sustai

but jack smith come i don't think there is any better. letitia jamesand it goes before a campaigning judge. the whole thing is a rigged deal. the public understands it. i'm lucky that i'm able to explain it to the public because if you were not able to explain it, the public wouldn't know. they would believe what they see. so i don't want to win this way. look, i want to win based on my policies are better. we will cut taxes, get interest rates down, buy homes again. you can't buy a home today because the interest rates are so high. i want to win unsafe borders and stop wars, stop the war in ukraine with russia. i want to stop what is happening in israel. israel would never be attacked if i were president. ukraine would never ever be attacked if i was president. you would not have had inflation. inflation was caused by high energy prices. i would have kept them down easily. and probably maybe caused were with ukraine because putin became rich all of a sudden. it went up so much and i watch president biden talking about putin. putin became very rich bec
