Political Quotes

On the recordJanuary 31, 2022
The radical Democrats are dead corrupt beyond belief. They`re viciously and unconstitutionally using the federal, local and state governments to prosecute in silence politicians like me, although I never considered myself to be a politician, but that`s what they`re doing. As an example, for years, they`ve been going after my company, many years, using every trick in the book in an attempt to literally, if they can put me in jail. They want to put me in jail. If these radical, vicious, racist prosecutors do anything wrong or illegal, I hope we are going to have in this country the biggest protests we have ever had in Washington D.C., in New York, in Atlanta and elsewhere.
