At a rally in Wildwood, New Jersey, Donald Trump introduced a new nickname for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, dubbing him “Fat Alvin.” Trump criticized Bragg, accusing him of corruption and negligence in handling crime in the city. He alleged that Bragg was focusing on Trump’s legal proceedings instead of addressing rampant crime, and suggested that legal scholars have found no evidence of wrongdoing in Trump’s case.
Trump’s attorney, Alina Habba, also joined in the criticism of the judicial proceedings, describing them as damaging to the justice system. She highlighted concerns about the impartiality and conflicts of interest of Judge Merchan, presiding over Trump’s case. The rally served as a platform for Trump to express his grievances about the ongoing legal battles he faces, particularly in New York.
Throughout his speech, Trump reiterated his claims of innocence and portrayed himself as a victim of political persecution orchestrated by the Biden administration. He cited legal experts, including Alan Dershowitz, who have questioned the legitimacy of the charges against him. Trump’s remarks aimed to rally his supporters and garner sympathy for his legal plight.
The rally in Wildwood was part of Trump’s ongoing efforts to maintain his political relevance and rally support from his base. By targeting Bragg and criticizing the legal proceedings against him, Trump sought to portray himself as a victim of a biased justice system and rally his supporters against perceived political adversaries.
