Former president and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump has issued a strong statement about the “Partisan Hack” judge overseeing the ridiculous “hush money” trial in Manhattan — daring Judge Juan Merchan to throw him in jail and make him “a Modern Day Nelson Mandela.”
The case, which was brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, centers around supposed “hush money” payments to former adult film star Stormy Daniels. The case is well past the statute of limitations, but that has not stopped Bragg. The leftist district attorney has repeatedly let violent criminals back on the streets with his notoriously soft-on-crime policies, but he is more than happy to jail his political opposition.
Donald Trump has been indicted by the Manhattan grand jury.
Last year, Alvin Bragg lowered 52% of all felony charges to misdemeanors.
But now he chose to elevate a misdemeanor past the statute of limitations to a felony to indict Trump.
Total banana republic shit.

Merchan, the judge in the case, is also excited to be part of the political persecution — as he has repeatedly violated Trump’s rights during the trial, including issuing clearly unconstitutional gag orders on the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
Imagine if a judge donated to "Stop Democrats" then ruled on a case against Biden. The outrage would be deafening. But Judge Merchan gets a pass for funding the "resistance" while overseeing Trump's trial. Recusal is the right answer – and there’s no good argument for why that…

The judge, who previously donated to President Joe Biden, has even gone so far as to expand the gag orders to block Trump from talking about Merchan’s adult daughter, who runs a Democrat campaign firm that has worked with many of Trump’s political opponents.

In a post on Truth Social on Saturday, Trump expressed his willingness to be jailed for expressing his First Amendment rights to speak out against the political persecution and the clear bias displayed by everyone involved in prosecuting him.
“Now, we have Merchan, who is not allowing me to talk, thereby violating the Law and the Constitution, all at once,” he wrote, questioning how Merchan was “even chosen for this case” and pointing out the shocking nature of the things the judge is “trying to get away with.”
“I heard he fought like hell to get it, and all of the rest of them also! If this Partisan Hack wants to put me in the ‘clink’ for speaking the open and obvious TRUTH, I will gladly become a Modern Day Nelson Mandela,” Trump added, noting that being jailed would be “my GREAT HONOR.”
“We have to Save our Country from these Political Operatives masquerading as Prosecutors and Judges, and I am willing to sacrifice my Freedom for that worthy cause. We are a Failing Nation, but on November 5th, we will become a Great Nation again. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump concluded.
