‘Weaponized’ System: Republicans React to Trump Indictment on Twitter

“[Alvin Bragg just] weaponized our sacred system of justice against President Donald Trump.“ —Kevin McCarthy

As PJ Media’s Kevin Downey Jr. reported, “A Manhattan grand jury indicted Donald Trump on Thursday on charges related to paying hush money to porn harlot Stormy Daniels.” This seems strange, considering that paying hush money is not even inherently illegal, and Trump didn’t pay Daniels.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) simply tweeted Trump’s statement with the comment, “I stand with Trump!!!”

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) declared, “A majority of Americans know Alvin Bragg’s witch hunt is a politically motivated prosecution.”

“This is a dark moment in the history of our Nation,” Kari Lake wrote.
