Town hall of Donald Trump with Fox News host Sean Hannity aired [full video below] on Tuesday night, generating significant interest. The event gained even more attention due to Trump’s earlier prediction that he would face a third indictment and his confirmation that he is the subject of a federal investigation regarding the Capitol attack on January 6, 2021.
The town hall, held in the crucial early voting state of Iowa, was recorded in Cedar Rapids on Tuesday afternoon and broadcast later that same night.
Former President Donald Trump criticized a Justice Department investigation into his actions to stay in power after 2020 election. He shared his concerns during a town hall in Iowa while speaking to Fox News‘ Sean Hannity, which marked his first public comments on the investigation. Trump expressed annoyance with the timing of the notification and reiterated his belief that he was being targeted due to his position in the GOP presidential primary race.
During his on-camera comments in front of a predominantly pro-Trump audience, the former president stated, “It bothers me. It bothers me for everybody in this incredible, sold-out audience, and it bothers you.” He then pointed out that he received the notification letter on a Sunday night, emphasizing that it was an unusual occurrence. Trump argued that the Department of Justice was rushing the investigation to interfere with the election, which he considered a disgraceful act unprecedented in the history of the country.
Additionally, Trump accused the Department of Justice of favoring Democrats, describing it as a weapon in their hands. He also criticized special counsel Jack Smith, referring to him as a “deranged” prosecutor. Smith is responsible for overseeing the investigations into Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election and his handling of classified documents after leaving office.
Trump also criticized the plea agreement between the Department of Justice (DOJ) and Hunter Biden, President Biden’s son, suggesting that it might spare him from going to prison for tax and gun offenses.
