"The jig is up": Trump goes berserk at news Meadows' testimony could "obliterate" Jan. 6 defense
Donald Trump's former White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows, has reportedly been granted immunity by Jack Smith after meeting with the special counsel and his team of investigators numerous times in connection to the 2020 presidential election subversion case, casting a grim outlook on the former president's future ability to defend himself.
According to a report from ABC News, Meadows stated that Trump was "dishonest" on the night of the election, prematurely telling the public that he had secured the presidential nomination before the final results had been tallied. "Obviously we didn't win," a source quoted Meadows as telling Smith's team.
And while Meadows' book purports that the election was "stolen," the former chief of staff reportedly conceded to Smith's prosecutors that he has never witnessed signs of fraud that would have precluded Joe Biden from claiming victory, also noting, per the report, that he concurs with a federal assessment done in 2020 that the presidential election that year was the most secure in U.S. history.
In response to the blockbuster news, the ex-president hit out at Meadows in a late-night TruthSocial post on Tuesday.
“I don’t think Mark Meadows would lie about the Rigged and Stollen 2020 Presidential Election merely for getting IMMUNITY against Prosecution (PERSECUTION!) by Deranged Prosecutor, Jack Smith," Trump wrote. "BUT, when you really think about it, after being hounded like a dog for three years, told you’ll be going to jail for the rest of your life, your money and your family will be forever gone, and we’re not at all interested in exposing those that did the RIGGING — If you say BAD THINGS about that terrible 'MONSTER,' DONALD J. TRUMP, we won’t put you in prison, you can keep your family and your wealth, and, perhaps, if you can make up some really horrible 'STUFF' a out him, we may very well erect a statue of you in the middle of our decaying and now very violent Capital, Washington, D.C."
“Some people would make that deal, but they are weaklings and cowards, and so bad for the future our Failing Nation," Trump continued. "I don’t think that Mark Meadows is one of them, but who really knows? MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”
“Mark Meadows NEVER told me that allegations of significant fraud (about the RIGGED Election!) were baseless," the former president added in a follow-up post. "He certainly didn’t say that in his book!”
Poor ex-president Trump. All his minions are turning on him. I hope one of his supporters will throw some paper towels to Trump for his tears.
