Trump’s allies will intensify their attacks on prosecutors investigating the former president next week, with the release of an online documentary accusing them of political activism and electoralism.
‘Chasing Trump’ will be released on April 17, two days after a New York court has begun jury selection in the first of four criminal trials against Trump.
Its producers say it will delve into the background of the prosecutors overseeing each of the cases.
And with the former president subject to a New York gag order preventing him from attacking witnesses, prosecutors, jurors and court staff, as well as his family members, it’s another example of him relying on the MAGA world to get dirt on his accusers.
“Chasing Trump is an important documentary that exposes left-wing prosecutors who are using the government as a weapon to attack my father,” Donald Trump Jr. told DailyMail.com.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who is leading the Georgia voter fraud prosecution, is one of four prosecutors targeted by ‘Going after Trump’
“It is the first documentary to delve into the background of the prosecutors behind the four cases against them and is a must-see for anyone who cares about preserving the rule of law and protecting our constitutional rights.”
Next week the world will witness the unprecedented spectacle of a former president of the United States appearing in court for the start of a criminal trial.
Jury selection will begin next Monday in the Trump hush money case. He is accused of falsifying business records to hide payments to a porn star during the 2016 presidential campaign.
He denies all 34 charges and is also having an affair with Stormy Daniels.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg is leading the prosecution.
He is one of the filmmakers’ targets, along with Fani Willis, who is bringing the Georgia voter fraud case, special prosecutor John Smith, who is leading a separate case into the 2020 election, and the classified documents case in Florida. , as well as New York Attorney General Letitia James, who won a $454 million civil settlement against Trump for fraudulently inflating his net worth.
‘Four corrupt and politically motivated prosecutors. One goal: Donald Trump,’ intones the narrator of a trailer shared with DailyMail.com
‘They say they are respecting the law. But close examination reveals policies of the worst kind aimed at influencing the 2024 elections.
The film also goes after special prosecutor Jack Smith, who is leading two federal prosecutions.
Don Jr. said the documentary, premiering April 17, exposes left-wing prosecutors using the government as a weapon to attack my father.
He argues that Trump is being punished for assuming the status quo and echoes his constant refrain that he is subject to a witch hunt.
It is an argument that is prohibited from being put forward in the New York case, where Judge Juan Merchán imposed a silence order.
The former president has had to use new tactics to express his point of view, coming dangerously close to circumventing the restriction at times.
Last week he shared a six-minute video clip of Fox News host Brian Kilmeade and George Washington law professor Jonathan Turley, raising concerns about Judge Merchan’s daughter.
“Furthermore, the fact is that the judge’s daughter is an activist who works for Kamala Harris,” Kilmeade said, referencing one of the accounts from Loren Merchan’s firm.
The new documentary is one of the ways Trump’s allies are adopting the argument on his behalf.
‘Chasing Trump’ is the first in a series produced by the conservative website American Greatness.
“These four prosecutions against President Trump are nothing more than partisan political activism disguised as the rule of law,” said Mike Davis of the Article III Project.
“Chasing Trump” will be available for free on amgreatness.com as well as all other streaming platforms including X, YouTube and Rumble. It will be released on April 17, 2024.
Curt Mercadenta, editor in chief of American Greatness, said it would surprise anyone who believed the legal system was free of partisan political considerations.
“As the 2024 election begins to heat up, it is imperative that Americans have the opportunity to learn more about the truth behind the prosecutions against President Trump, along with the partisan prosecutors behind the cases,” he said.
Mike Davis, founder of the Article III Project, which was created to lobby for conservative judicial candidates and now campaigns against what it sees as liberal activism in the courts, said: “These four indictments of President Trump are nothing more than political activism partisan”. disguised as the rule of law.
“‘Going after Trump’ exposes the left-wing prosecutors behind these cases as nothing more than puppets of Joe Biden and his political machine.”
