Donald Trump spent his Saturday afternoon swearing and fuming before a gathering of rich donors in Palm Beach while launching attacks on special counsel Jack Smith and also complaining about President Joe Biden’s “Gestapo.”
During a report on the donor retreat in Florida where the former president is hobnobbing with wealthy donors as he scrambles for campaign and legal fees cash, CNN’s Alayna Treene claimed the former president went on a 90-minute tirade.
Speaking with hosts Victor Blackwell and Amara Walker, she reported, “Well it was a 90-minute speech that Donald Trump gave at his Mar-a-Lago club on Saturday and I’m told that it was a pretty profanity-laden speech. The former president cursed on occasion while railing against special counsel Jack Smith and as well as others who are leveling their criminal indictments against him.”
“And you’re right, at one point in the speech, Donald Trump had even compared the Biden administration to the Gestapo, further trying to equate them to Nazi Germany,” she added. “Now, Donald Trump also used the speech to lavish praise on some of his vice presidential contenders, including many of them who he actually called up to the stage.”
According to NBC News, Trump raged, “These people are running a Gestapo administration. And it’s the only thing they have. And it’s the only way they’re going to win in their opinion.”
“Once I got indicted, I said well, now the gloves have to come off,” Trump continued before stating Biden is “the worst president in the history of our country. He’s grossly incompetent. He’s crooked as hell. He’s the Manchurian candidate, he accepts massive amounts of money from China, from Russia, from Ukraine and many other countries. He’s a crook.”
