"The fact that they're holding a rally across the street from this very witch hunt — right across the street — tells us exactly what we all knew all along that it is a political persecution, it is a witch hunt."
Donald Trump Jr. criticized the Biden campaign on Tuesday after the group held a press conference outside the New York City courthouse where Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s falsified business records trial continued on Tuesday, saying that the move confirmed that the case was "political persecution."
"The fact that they're holding a rally across the street from this very witch hunt — right across the street — tells us exactly what we all knew all along that it is a political persecution, it is a witch hunt," Trump Jr. said.
"There is a reason one of the people sitting at that desk was the number three person in Joe Biden's DOJ. I know my father is not allowed to say Matthew Colangelo in his name, right, because he's been gagged. The President of the United States is not allowed to exercise his First Amendment rights in New York City in this day and age."
The Biden campaign held a press conference Monday morning which included actor and infamous anti-Trumper Robert De Niro as well as two officers who were at the Capitol on January 6, Michael Fanone and Harry Dunn.
"We’re not here today because of what’s going on over there," said Biden campaign communications director Michael Tyler. "We’re here today because you all are here."
"We’re here primarily because of the threat that Donald Trump poses to the United States of America and to our democracy," he added.
Tyler claimed that the "looming threat of MAGA extremism has only grown stronger since January 6, and so yeah, we’re gonna campaign on the president’s record, on his vision, and we’re gonna run against the extremism embodied by Donald Trump as he sits in that building or anywhere else across the country."
De Niro criticized Trump and his supporters, saying, "If Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss these freedoms goodbye that we all take for granted. And elections, forget about it. That’s over, that’s done. If he gets in, I can tell you right now, he will never leave. He will never leave. you know that. He will never leave."
He said that Trump supporters nationwide "bought into his bullsh*t," and Trump "bought their votes with outrageous lies and empty promises."
