Trump Praises Indicted Fake Electors And Complains About Them Being Treated ‘Unfairly’

Donald Trump traveled to Nevada a few days ago to hold a rally, and things took an immediate turn when he started whining about how the fake Trump electors in the state were being treated. Six fake electors in Nevada have been charged with felony counts for submitting fake documents to the government, and Trump told a crowd that this was somehow "unfair" treatment. He then went on to blame Biden for everything, even though it was Trump's scheme. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

This past weekend, Donald Trump went to Nevada where he held a rally and lamented the fact that in his mind, these six fake Trump electors from Nevada that have been indicted and are facing multiple felony charges, a piece, they're allegedly being treated unfairly, you know, for allegedly breaking the law. Here is what Trump said. A tremendous man, tremendous guy, gets treated so unfairly. And he loves this country and he loves this state. Nevada, GOP Chairman, Michael McDonald. He's a fantastic man. Thank you. Thank you. Michael McDonald, of course, was one of the six people, indicted and Trump continued. Um, thank you Jesse, talking about Clark County, GOP Chairman Jesse Law. Great job. You're doing great job. Treated very unfairly. He also thanked Nevada GOP Vice Chairman and, uh, story County clerk, Jim Hindle, who is another fake elector. He then said, it's no wonder crooked Joe in the far left, lunatics are desperate to stop us by any means necessary.

They're willing to violate the US Constitution at levels never seen before in order to win. They're dirty players. They play dirty. That's, that's what dirty player would mean. You don't have to reiterate that dude, they weaponized justice. There are a bunch of dirty players. Wow. Three sentences. Three times saying dirty players. Look at what they're doing right here to Michael and great people in this state. It's a disgrace. Joe Biden's a threat to democracy. They're weaponizing law enforcement for high level election interference because we're beating them so badly in the polls. No. What happened was you, your legal team got a bunch of yahoos across the country to agree to sign fake documents and submit them to the state governments alleging that they were the real electors, and that the Biden electors were the fake ones. So your people submitted fake documents to the federal government with the help of your lawyers, and now they're being held accountable for it.

That's not the weaponization of justice. That's literally just justice. These people, likely according to the indictments, against them, committed fraud. Now, they have not yet been, uh, convicted of this, so we cannot say that they are fraudsters, but they allegedly committed fraud according to the indictments. And you're sitting there whining and crying that, oh, Biden did this. Biden has no control over this. By the way, these are state level prosecutions. These are not federal prosecutions. Biden has no hand in this. He doesn't have authority. He doesn't have jurisdiction to have any sway over these investigations that are, by the way, mostly taken place in swing states where you have a divided government that is still moving forward with these indictments. It's not a partisan thing, it's, you know, a justice thing. But Trump is gonna go out there and he is gonna defend these people every chance he has because they took it to the mat for him. They're the ones paying

The consequences for him. He doesn't want to have to, you know, pay all their legal fees. So instead, he'll go out there, say some nice things about 'em and hope that that smooths things over, even if these people face the potential of spending the next few years in prison. But, hey, a couple nice words ought to suffice, right?
