Canada Global (Web News) President Joseph Biden declined on Friday to respond to his predecessor Donald Trump’s indictment, which made him the first former US president to be charged with a crime.
Biden purposefully chose not to respond to a number of questions on the topic from journalists who had gathered to see him leave the White House because he was spending the day in Mississippi.
Trump’s attorneys were contacted on Thursday to “arrange his surrender,” according to the office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, an elected Democrat, with the criminal accusations against him to be made public at that time.
Trump, who is widely regarded as the leading candidate for the Republican Party in the 2024 race, blasted the indictment as “political persecution and election interference,” lashing out at the police and his Democratic rivals.
Additionally, he claimed that it will backfire on Biden, who plans to run for re-election to the White House.
Trump’s political opponents and detractors alike have expressed reservations about the New York hush-money case’s legal viability, making the effect of an indictment on Trump’s chances for victory uncertain.
