Washington, DC – Today, Congresswoman Harriet Hageman issued the following statement regarding the verdict in the New York State Supreme Court trial of Donald J. Trump.
“Today, justice was not served. Judge Juan Merchan, an activist judge, whose daughter has made over $9 million from the Biden/Harris campaign, presided over a trial where he blocked key witnesses, testimony, and facts by the defense and provided slanted jury instructions prior to the jury deliberating the case. The case was brought after the statute of limitations had passed and was elevated to a felony by a district attorney that campaigned on ‘getting Trump’.
“This entire infuriating episode is the liberal Democrats’ desperate gasp to win a presidential election that they will ultimately lose. The American people will see this for what it is, Donald Trump will ultimately have the verdict overturned on appeal, and we must all ensure that this abuse of the legal system is never allowed to happen again
