Donald Trump responds – and fundraising -after indictment

Since the indictment was handed down five days ago, the Trump campaign has raised $10 million in donations

Appearing at the Manhattan Criminal Court surrounded by Secret Service for his arraignment on Tuesday, former U.S. President Donald Trump plead not guilty to 34 felony counts for falsifying business records in the first degree.

After his court appearance, he flew back to Mar-a-Lago in South Florida, where he delivered remarks to his supporters.

Trump highlighted the many domestic problems facing Americans like the economy and inflation, as well as global issues like China and Russia’s ever-growing partnership.

“Our economy is crashing,” he stated. “Inflation is out of control. Russia has joined with China. Can you believe that? Saudi Arabia has joined with Iran.”

Currently, the U.S. Dollar is one of the world’s most widely used currencies.

However, Trump argued that the U.S. sovereign currency is collapsing.

“Our currency is crashing and will soon no longer be the world standard, which will be our greatest defeat, frankly, in 200 years,” Trump said.

On Wednesday, President Joe Biden had nothing on his schedule.

Despite about being asked repeatedly to comment on Trump’s indictment, the White House has so far refused.

Since the indictment was handed down five days ago, the Trump campaign says it has raised $10 million in donations from supporters.
